We have classified this issue as voter fraud, even though it technically isn't, because it could cause your vote to not be counted or to count exactly opposite from your actual vote.
Only 15 states have this option, if yours is one of them don't use it! There are many flaws the worst of which is that the vote can get counted for the wrong party. Straight-party voting (also called "straight-ticket" voting) means selecting a single bubble or box for a specific political party in order to register your vote for multiple candidates of that party.
In North Carolina , if you only use the straight party vote option, then you are not even casting a vote for president. 90,000 voters failed to mark their selection for President and Vice-President in NC in the 2004 election. Don't let this happen again in 2008.
DO NOT USE the straight-party option. If you want to vote for all candidates of the same party, mark each candidate individually.
