Moment Of Truth
Well, we’re there. Tomorrow is election day, polls are looking good, and early voters are favoring Obama heavily. Both of the candidates have made their closing arguments, and it is time to get out there and vote if you haven’t already. Me, I’m lucky enough to live in a state that has a vote by mail system, so I got my voting out of the way already. For those of you who have not been to the polls yet, make sure you get counted. Know the local laws on campaign gear near the voting booth. If you have problems voting, report it and get a provisional ballot. Make sure to vote in your local elections, because your vote actually counts there. Don’t make excuses and avoid the ballot box, make excuses to make it there. Can’t get out of work in time to vote? Call in sick. Have to pick your kid up from school? Have the people around you reserve your place in line if you have to leave. Do whatever you need to, because almost nothing is more important than being heard. Here are some resources to help if you have issues voting:
