Title: Vote yet?
Post by: jcm on November 03, 2008, 04:26:06 PM
I voted on Friday at 6pm. Have you already voted or are you waiting until tomorrow? Don't waste your vote like some other people I know!

I voted over a week ago in early voting...much easier than having to wait till tomorrow.

Voted on this past Friday around 3pm.  It was only about 20 minutes of waiting.  To pass the time, I would try to guess who in line would vote for Obama or McCain.

I voted a couple weeks ago. First time voting (by choice; I never registered).

I finally felt like I could make a difference. It's a good feeling.

Oregon is a mail-in ballot only state, so I voted 2 weeks ago.  LOVE that!  I always felt a time pressure in California when I voted, with the long lines and no pre-vote days.  This way, it's like an open book test... I can read the ballot book, ponder, research and vote at my leisure.  We mailed those babies off the day after we got them in the mail!   :banna:

I've just voted for McCain, because I fell in love with his running mate. Just kidding :)

Wow, I'm in the minority politically as well. I actually couldn't vote do to some ballot issues, but this way people won't get as pissed with me because I would have voted for Bob Barr anyways.

Bob Barr is going to win! WOOT!

I'm gonna vote next year. Just to insure that my money is on the winning horse.  :D oO(Of course, the fact that we don't have elections until then has a little something to do with it too...)
