Maybe dad wants her to grow up to be politicaly aware.

I guess. Trying to do something about the 73% who aren't.

Erai little girl!

I just saw on NHK News 7 that as of 4pm the voter turnout rate was a miserable 27%. I guess the remaining 73% are going to vote between 4pm and 8pm...

I think she's an adorable little girl. Maybe dad wants her to grow up to be politicaly aware.

The ability to vote in one's own country is a luxury that many shouldn't ignore. I remember watching some Japanese program that had a saying to the effect of, "We may be voting for nothing but crap politicians, but at least we can choose what kind of crap we get..."

Cute little girl, but

I agree- ballot tampering! Maybe Daddy wants her to grow up to be politically corrupt! She is obviously participating for the Ben & Jerry's bribe of free ice cream!

Didn't you see the article and thread about Ben and Jerry's giving away free ice cream if you voted??? Politically corrupt= taking the B&J's ice cream bribe!!

So, no, I'm not insulting the Dad. Yes, it was a joke!! Yes she's cute and I said so yo. But yes I am criticizing the J voting system, because, no, other ppl shouldn't touch your ballot, I feel. But I did it in a cute way thru B & J's because she is so cute!! Take a chill pill mate.

Even if you are probably joking, I don't think you should insult that dad like that. It's only a cute pic about a dad and his daughter, give a break!
