I'm not saying for who, or for what, but just do it. Men and women are putting themselves in harm's way to secure this right for you, and the least you can do is exercise your right. If you don't vote, you cannot complain.

I shall cast mine shortly.

I greatly appreciate all the sacrifice of our military. I have zero interest in politics and don't believe who gets elected has much, if any, bearing on my day to day life. I'm not going to just go vote and pick a name or a side on an issue without knowing a damn thing about them as I think it's pointless to do so. Not a bash against those that spend the time to study the issues and make educated picks, it's just not something I feel warrants my time. If there is an issue I feel strongly enough about I make it a point to cast a vote but skip the ones I know nothing about.

Casting mine this afternoon!! :-)

Just did.

Feel good to be an American.

and....

Regular TV ads return tonight. Not sure thats a great improvement but we need to celebrate the small things.
[Reply]

Don't you wish there was a way to enforce that? I know I do!
[Reply]

Voted last Thursday....

....and yes Scott...

:-)

I did vote early, I also appreciate the military for what they do. They deserve the support. God Bless America! :-)
[Reply]

I am so glad that the ads will be gone.... I am tired of all of it....

On the topic at hand: It does give one (or at least me) a sense of pride in having participated by voting!
[Reply]

Been there, done it, got the sticker! It's appropriate, IMO, that our voting place in in the National Guard Armory!

And, CigarNut, I couldn't agree more! NO MORE ADS!!
[Reply]

done.
[Reply]

Voted, right before lunch.

No line, both a good thing....and a not so good thing.

Maybe everybody just early-voted.:-)

I voted early by mail. I love that I can cast my ballot in that manner.

Interesting note, when Abraham Lincoln was voted into office there was an 81% voter turnout rate. Think how much more difficult it was to get to the polling station then, and we had 81% turnout. In the last election in 2008, there was a 56% voter turnout.

Sad.
[Reply]

Done!! :-)
[Reply]

True, but back then everyone pretty much lived within a block of their polling station. :-)
[Reply]

I haven't looked at the TV since early this morn, but in my area, they were predicting a 58% turnout for this election. Last year was 42%, and the '08 Presidential election was 65% turnout.
[Reply]

I just came back from the station. It felt really good to do so in person rather than mailing it in all the time. Even better is that the place was packed!!!
[Reply]

Actually, they didn't. And to go 3, 5, 10, or 15 miles to vote -- by foot, horseback, or wagon -- was a day long excursion.

Got my vote in.
[Reply]

Voted first thing this morning.... It's a rough election here, because it's tough to pick through the bullshit
