Get out and VOTE

Ah, the democratic process. I feel as though this election has been going on for years. Now I know that is not the case but hey as much as Ben watches the various news channels, besides Fox, I’m sure I could report on the status of the election almost as good as Wolf. I am happy to report that we have completed out civic duty and voted early. I think that all of Texas has finally come into the 21st century with electronic voting machines even with their good and bad qualities. We use to have to draw a line to the candidate we were voting for. I did not think that was the best option but who knows. Ben’s comment was there really should be a paper trail, that way no one can come back and show “. . . that the all black district voted for the white supremacist.” And of course we hope that no little computer nerd could hack into the system and vote for Mickey Mouse. Either way, I will always vote and try to show my support for the candidates that I’m voting for. With that said be sure to get out and vote, early or on Election Day. The news media talks that this is going to be one of the largest election turn outs in history. Hopefully the weather will remain pleasant across the country, but if not never fear, for if you live in Virginia you could do a drive up to vote. That’s right apparently the state of Virginia wants to really make sure you do not have an excuse for not voting, and has set up at least one polling station where you can drive up to place your vote. I would possibly use that, since I have two small children I would be taking with me but really get out of your car and walk. Well as the saying goes Vote early and vote often. At least as often as legally allowed.
