Do the right thing and get out and vote (even if it is for the 'wrong' candidate)!
Stand up and be heard!
If you don't - you have NO RIGHT to complain about how the country/or your city/state are governed because you didn't let your voice be heard in the elections!.

Hope you don't have to wait in line too long, Linds :)
I think there were over 1300 people in my district voting (and that was at 5pm) I went and was #770 (or something around there at 3:15-ish) and my mom went after work and got #330 (or something like that - around 4:45-ish) so that would be about 1300 people voting. Looking forward to seeing the election results.
Just wonder what the voters will say for our local school referendum...hopefully - for the sake of the kids they vote yes - but it would mean a tax increase - and people just don't seem to like that idea.

Yeah - but mine was like 1/15 of the city I live in.
We've got about 15 or more districts - and each one votes seperately - and is counted seperately.

I don't know how many districts there are by me :) Lol. My mom didn't know I registered to vote, so I stood in the register line, and I was registered when she got up, so I switched lines. Lol
i did early voting last week :)
