Did You Vote? 2008

Check in if you voted! Also, check in if you didn't vote. I for one would be fascinated to know why and would try not to judge.

Yes, I voted! It was the last time in Seattle we'll be able to go to the polls instead of mailing in our ballots, so I got a good feeling from that.

Just got home. It took me 10 minutes total, including waiting in line.

Now I'm just gonna go watch the news for the next 10 hours...

Ja, bitte.

I even voted to change my town's crooked mayubernatorial election procedures.  Seriously.  Right now, the mayor is elected by a board that he personally selects.

I voted absentee about a week ago. My district in Connecticut has the last remaining Republican congressman in New England (Chris Shays) and he has an tight race against a Democrat this year. As much as Shays shows every sign of being a great guy personally, I decided to vote on the actual issues for the Democrat.

Yes.
in California where I am still registered.
Pres - duh. Obama
8 - no
Representative - Nancy Pelosi
other than that I don't remember.

Voting for propositions in California is super-hard, I find. I can never tell by the two sentence description if its good or not. There will be a tax reform law that sounds great, turns out its worded Bush-esque where it sounds helpful but is actually the opposite.

I did the early voting thing in Ohio last Friday. 3 hour wait, but I didn't mind. I'm currently muddling my way through Infinite Jest, and since the amount of time which I have to devote to said muddling has been greatly decreased by all the election stuff, it was kinda nice to just have 3 straight hours to read.

I'll probably go into the wee hours.

Vote for what?  Is there an election going on?

Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

I voted almost two weeks ago. I love the mail in ballot. It gives you time to really look into everything that's on the ballot.

Voted here in Ohio. Took about 5 minutes total. Now I'm in for a night of staring at Wolf Blitzer and various other news folk.
