Today's confession: I got up on time for like the first time in a long while to vote before work. And there was a fairly huge line (for my little town):
The lady in front of me and I were talking about how great it was that so many people are coming out to vote today.
After voting I had a Dr.'s appt, and he too commented that it felt more like a presidential election. We both agreed that was fantastic.
I also stopped at Starbucks for a coffee. I was eavesdropping on the very young baristas' conversation. One guy was telling the other how important it was to vote today, and that he really needed to make sure he MADE the time to vote. The other was clearly not informed and had no idea why today was so important. The first guy did a fantastic job educating, and as I left, I told barista #2 to listen to his buddy.
So, I'm using my little corner of the interwebs to encourage you to make sure get to the polls today if you haven't already voted. Your voice matters.
I voted by mail! I did it in the primary this year because I was going to be in Greece on voting day but opted to do it permanently. It's really nice to spend quality time with the ballot and then walk it in!
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to have options! I like going to the booth if I'm around, but would definitely opt for absentee if I needed!
DeleteNice work! Good luck to all your choices.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteI voted today as well. I miss mail in ballots, but I got it done.
ReplyDeleteI can see where mailing would be convenient. But I like actually going to the polls. Something kind of exciting about it.
