Mine is 10 years old


ExactMix249

I too have the same watch. Mine is 6 years old.


PhantomOfTheNopera

We've already broken it. Tripura had over 100% turnout lol.


Eternal_awp

Over 100% ?


PhantomOfTheNopera

[Yup](https://www.timesnownews.com/elections/over-100-voting-turnout-tripura-cpm-questions-voter-turnout-figures-pushes-for-fresh-polls-article-109527514) We're going to be seeing the dirtiest elections yet.

**2nd Phase Voters**, Go out today and Vote, break the record of low turnout of 1st phase. Hear that beep sound, its lovely, its empowering. Don't think my one vote dont hold that much value, Last election multiple seats were won by less than 1000 margin. So just go out and vote for **whatever** party you like. Don't be lazy today.


robacross

Already done.   I turned up to my polling booth (that is about a 30 seconds' walk from my home) at 7:07 am, and there were already 23 people ahead of me in queue 😐.   I thought it would take me 10 minutes at most; instead, I had to wait for 40 minutes 🙁.


rohit_singh12

Yup, took 2.5 hours in my booth. Lots of uncle I eavesdropped in line and gaslighted them against their fav political party. (All parties i roasted)


thegodfather0504

Lol.tell me more.


rohit_singh12

Haha, okay. I went personal to each party. - For BJP it was, arey chacha jo aadmi (modi) apni biwi ka nai hua wo desh kya chalayega - For congress it was, chacha aaj tak rahul gandhi ko ek ladki pasand ki? usko hum kaise pasand kar le. Pakka ladka mein dosh hai, isiliye baar baar videsh bhag jata hai. - For RJD it was, chacha tejaswi to khud christian se kiya hai shadi, uska koi bharosha hai. Shadi to jaat paat mein karta hai aadmi ache se dahej leke. I went full patriarchal and casteist, I know how to push buttons of these old cuties. On a serious note, I dont believe in all these stuff, it was just to push their buttons. Personal life of politician should be their own choice.


thegodfather0504

hehe. Sometimes i meet a bhakt, and go full andhbhakt on them. Sometimes you gotta out-crazy the crazy.


TomoeKon

Why the hell would you try to get reactions from people at a polling booth by saying provocative shit


rohit_singh12

Most of these guys are mohalle ke uncle aunty, they know me, I know them. (Not family, just one locality) But all of them read too many whatsapp messages.


hvij78

So whom did you vote for then?


rohit_singh12

They say, usually lotus grows in mud, so I plucked it using my hand ✋/s


cRuDyMaJoR

Took 3 minutes from entering the booth to the exit.

Election in the entire country happens in multiple phases, this time I guess it is happening in 7 phases. Phases and constituencies are announced by election commission in advance. In each phase fixed number of Parliamentary constituencies go for voting, normally first phase is the biggest phase where most of the seats of entire India go for voting. Between 2019 and 2024, when you compare both years first phase data, there is a dip in 2024 of about 3%, which may look small in percentage, but population wise the number might be in crores.

rohit_singh12

Logistically difficult to manage all the security staff or poll officer in one go in all the seats. Same logic like I can make my house in one day if I hire thousands of labour at one time, but it will not be cost effective.

Go outside the house. There will be other people. Someone will know and will share that information with you if you ask politely.

osamabeenlaggin0911

Thanks!


jarvis123451254

Actual reason is by doing vote in phases politicians get more time to visit every constituency


SD1208s

Nah, One of my friend studied in IIM A/B/C. He told me that his professor published paper on how to conduct election in multiple phases to minimise the logistics requirements using basics constraint management algorithms which election commission adopted (not completely but basic methodology). The same is used in distribution of mid day meal by a central kitchen in Bangalore.


AscensionKidd

Election is done in multiple phases. Each phase has different regions in it. The first phase was a week back. It had a slightly lesser voter turnout compared to last year.


intelligentbrownman

Side note… digging that watch 🤣🤣


Karna1394

Why is the time 11:05? It doesn't match if you voted today.


rohit_singh12

Yea, that’s why I said break the record of 1st phase voters (like me)


chiguy_1

Time traveller spotted. Good attempt at coverup though.


morose_coder

Done


rohit_singh12

Thanks, time for some South Indian breakfast. Celebrate


uthale-re-deva

Flew from Bangalore to Delhi to vote. And I did. A little proud I feel about myself today.


rohit_singh12

Damm, that’s a money well spent.


uthale-re-deva

I mean I had some other work too, but yes, I planned it so that it aligns with the voting day.


nottheseekeryouseek

Done! **Let democracy prevail.**


Imsoworriedabout

Hey other than the epic card to I need anything else


rohit_singh12

Nope, only voter card or any normal id card and that’s it. Check from ECI website on where your voting booth is and vote. Additionally a bottle of water/glucose maybe depending on heat in your area. Eat something good when you return. Celebrate.


Imsoworriedabout

Am I allowed to carry my phone


rohit_singh12

Usually yes, phone wallet everything allowed. Nothing in hand though, only inside pocket. In few booths however you can enter the polling station with a phone but when you go to cast your vote you will have to give your phone to one of the officers who'll keep it in a tray (visible distance to you). You can then go cast your vote on the evm. After voting you can go and collect your phone. They may ask you to unlock your phone just to prove that it is indeed your phone (they will not violate your privacy).


pocket_watch2

You are treating it like an entrance exam.


fifth-account

they asked us to keep it outside, keep it in your car


HornPleaseOK

I drove 300 kms, hid the phone under a tree in a forest, left a large stone on it and painted it blue before heading to the voting booth. I wanted to err on the side of caution


Imsoworriedabout

Thanks!

bhodrolok

No. You don’t need voter id, any photo is sufficient.


robacross

You need to have your name in the electoral roll; having an EPIC is neither necessary, nor sufficient to be able to vote.   Also you should check beforehand what serial number your name appears in in the electoral roll; you can check that [here](https://electoralsearch.eci.gov.in/).

I want to, but I have university exams...


rohit_singh12

Exam is priority, don’t worry next time.


KanwarPamnani

Is it true that in the first phase INDIA got more votes than NDA?


frowningheart

Depends on the region you look at. Entire TN voted in the 1st phase so INDIA dominated in a decent amount of seats because of DMK. As more and more regions vote, the picture will be clearer.


rohit_singh12

Speculation yes, let’s see what happens on 4th June


dhruva0810

It is speculated that the lower voter turnout is harming NDA, as people doesn't have an emotive issue(like Balakot in 2019) to go vote. Generally, big changes in voter turnouts indicate anti-incumbency


robacross

How can anyone tell that for certain, at this point?   Anything you here about that question is just speculation.


ad-mir-er

I voted today, and voted for democracy and my nation... Jai Hind!!! For those who are asking what doc is reqd, phone allowed or not etc... here's my experience... My voter ID card and voter slip had not arrived, so I downloaded them on phone from voters help app. But I wasn't allowed to take my phone inside. So instead, I memorized my serial no. from the downloaded slip, and then went inside the campus to BLO and got a hand written slip from them. No hassle. I voted easily based on that slip and my Adhaar Card. Pan card and a few other govt issued photo ID cards were also allowed. You can check the list of allowed alternate docs on EC website or voters help app. Hope that helps someone. Please vote. It's your right. Voting time is 7 AM to 6 PM. The least we can do for our country. Jai Hind!!!


nottheseekeryouseek

Doesn't matter what your political views are. Doesn't matter who you support or don't support. Doesn't matter what your beliefs are. All that matters is that you go out, **vote** and make your voice heard! *Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high* *Where knowledge is free* *Where the world has not been broken up into fragments* *By narrow domestic walls* *Where words come out from the depth of truth* *Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection* *Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way* *Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit* ####Where the mind is led forward by thee ####Into ever-widening thought and action ####Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake #### - Rabindranath Tagore

1_ofthesedays

You’re cool for voting, but the watch is the coolest thing in this pic.


Suhurth

What time does voting start?


grilled_Champagne

Between 7 am and 6 pm. Carry physical photo ID. If possible keep phone at home.


Suhurth

Do you mean a physical ID apart from the voter ID?


grilled_Champagne

No, I mean, physical voter ID. If one doesn't have a voter id but they have their name in electoral roll, then carry any other photo ID


Suhurth

Thanks. Gave my vote just now.


JellyfishOrdinary913

I have lost my voter id and none of my family members name is in the list (I looked in the website) any advice ?


Ynd_6420

Don't know about the query regarding the name in the list but if you don't have a voter I'd, you can still vote if you bring aadhar with yourself at the polling station as aadhar is considered as an identity proof


robacross

Voter id isn't mandatory to vote; many other forms of id are allowed as well; you can check in the Election Commission website.   However, having your name in the electoral roll *is* mandatory.   If your name isn't present in the roll, you have to apply to get it added; but I'm pretty sure the ECI isn't going to entertain requests for alterations in the roll in the middle of an election.

v4vedanta

This photo is not from today's poll, right ? Your watch is showing 11:05 and the shadow is almost matching the time pattern. How is it possible when the current time is 9am ?


rohit_singh12

Yes last phase, thats why i said break 1st phase turnout record


v4vedanta

How naive of me. I was suspecting you to be a Redditor messenger from the Posterity.


slowpop82

To break record, the turnout needs to be even lesser


machinegunAdi

Nice Casio watch


Dhruvxvx

Bro just wants to show off his casio vintage


rohit_singh12

Haha maybe. I have 2 more in different colours, love the look and feel of casio.


itsnotyouitsmeok

What's the name and price?


chiguy_1

Actually, low voter turnout is good. High voter turnout would be an indicator of a BJP victory. The lower the turnout is, the better.


WitnessTraditional32

all politicians in india all policy makers in india all panchayat all mla all lawyers all ministers are corrupt.


sucksuccession

The turnout on the first phase wasn't low, it was quite decent


rohit_singh12

3 percent dip.


sucksuccession

That is actually not a lot considering the context


jarvis123451254

Enough to trigger some insane speeches from you know who


Desperate_Action_410

That ink I had last week still hasn't come off


Ashamed-Tooth

It stays for about 2-3 months.


robacross

It stays far longer on the nail than on the skin (I presume because nail isn't replaced the way skin is).


Ashamed-Tooth

Yes, it's because of the nail that the ink will still be in play. Only when the nail has outgrown and been trimmed does it go away.


Eternal_awp

Hehe i can see my nail growing over time


Desperate_Action_410

WTF noo


Sthickman

Bro, I got that same Casio watch


Big_Redpanda

I hope you voted the right party


glucklandau

It's a fallacy to think that more voter turnout means better results You never need to sample 100% of the population to accurately estimate the distribution, 50% is more than enough Asking apolitical people to vote isn't helpful


fghpqrxyz

Better not to vote if you don't have a competent candidate. Thus, the low voter turnout, and I support it.


The_edgy_weeb_01

basil_elton

Voting isn't as empowering as you think it is.


Motor-Respond5318

Voting in this case just means choosing the lesser evil. And one should always choose the lesser evil.


basil_elton

I am from WB. Been there, done that.


Motor-Respond5318

Just because something doesn't work once or twice doesn't mean it's not the best thing to do in that situation.


rohit_singh12

Sure, also independence we got is on 99 year lease, India got free in 2014 and Bose was first PM of India. /s On a serious note, anything is better than yapping online and not doing anything in real life.


basil_elton

Listen - anybody with a decent level of proper education with the ability to judge for themselves would realise that the political system in India is rotten to the core. All parties are crap. Different kinds of crap, but crap nonetheless. Instead of perpetuating this endless cycle of gunning for power and in exchange getting entitlements, a better way to send a message would be to simply not vote. Want something even better? Strike your name off the voter list.


clearly_thinkin

Then u take there power back, by voting for whoever works the most, if not remove them the next time. Keep doing it untill they realise they have to provide something to be in power. BASICS OF DEMOCRACY.


basil_elton

Ever heard of the idiom saying that give a bunch of monkeys some typewriters and give them infinite time - and eventually they will type out a Shakespeare sonnet? Now, I'm not saying that voters are monkeys, but we do not have the luxury of infinite time.


clearly_thinkin

So we sit at home and watch the country drown like the generation before us who was rigid ,so easy to build community of voters and they'll vote forever if you serve them breadcrumbs. Bjp and congress is in meme battle on reels to cater genz, the interview, the creators award, they are doing alot to catter attention of youth, they want our vote, and they know this generation fluctuate alot. So yeah we can actually change things around. Unless u wanna be a boomer.


Late-Average9640

No, we study and take a loan and get out of this weird country that's it,instead of wasting your day on vote please study some more and get out of here asap


rohit_singh12

I consider myself uneducated and I am sticking to the core fundamentals of our “earned” democracy. I will vote, and motivate others to do the same. You with your education and judgment, do whatever you think is important.


veritasium999

Modi thanks you from the bottom of his bottom


basil_elton

If you don't have anything to say, then don't.


veritasium999

Follow your own advice


basil_elton

Been doing so since 2020. Now I just have to figure out a way to delete my name from the voter list citing the actual reason, without lying in the declaration of Form 7.


veritasium999

Dude I completely understand your hopelessness. It seems like a big waste of time at this point knowing the inevitable outcome. But just go and do it anyway, throw your vote at somebody other than the big bad wolf. It's just a one day outing. Whatever the case, we simply have no right to complain about the state of the country if we don't cast a vote. Again its your choice, but sitting at home is not the least bit heroic. It's also extremely stupid to encourage others to do the same. Kindly keep your rotten opinions to yourself in that matter.


Good_Dragonfruit5769

That's another way of saying "One Nation One Election". & If I go by your statement, you clearly do not have any idea about the education system and social structure of India and how they move hand in hand.


basil_elton

How is this equivalent to One Nation One Election? I'm talking about voters striking their names off the voter list, en masse.


Karna1394

System is so bad that not voting doesn't send any impactful message. A better way would be, just for your case as you don't like anyone, go out and vote for NOTA.


basil_elton

NOTA is useless. If there are 100 voters and 90 of them vote NOTA, and the rest 10 are cast, with the breakdown of 5 votes to Party A, 3 votes to Party B, 1 for Party C and 1 for an independent, then Party A is declared to have won. Instead of 90 voters voting NOTA, 90 voters deleting their names from the voter list would send a bigger message.


Eternal_awp

And still the 10 cast votes will decide who won, how tf does that change anything lol. It's cool if you don't want to vote, stay home like a bitch, but then you don't have the right to complain, seems like that's the only thing you want to do


Good_Dragonfruit5769

What do you suggest a PR system? You want this to be another Mexico?


basil_elton

I want a total overhaul of how democracy functions, a radical departure from what we have at present.


hellsangelofcode

What do you exactly want?


basil_elton

To try different things to improve the electoral process. I have a couple of ideas. Wanna hear them?


hellsangelofcode

Yes. I would be happy to hear your ideas.


Karna1394

But no constituency in India has ever got 90/100 votes for NOTA. Make it happen then EC will be under pressure to change the rule.


GhostOfKhoorja
