You! Yes I'm talking to YOU! Stop reading this blog and GO VOTE!
We did it! We had a backpack full of math homework, spelling and reading books... and we didn't need it. We only waited in line 30 minutes.
If you want to play along with the pundits, download this electoral college map and start coloring as the results come in tonight.

Isn't it a bit too early. I think I voting places only open at 8 am tomorrow. We are going before work tomorrow morning.
Great picture - I am changing my screen-saver again.

PS By the way, do you care whom are we voting for?
The lines are going to be so long in GA that I am pretty sure I will spend all day in line tomorrow. :-) So I needed to post early.
And I know who you are voting for. :-)
I dread the lines tomorrow night but I'll be there voting.
Love the picture of Ben.
The TV news hopefully is not turning people away with news of long lines. The coworkers that voted this morning said that the voting lines were short and moved quickly in their towns. I'm hoping they won't be horrible at suppertime tonight.
Our poll workers said the lines were very long when the polls opened and they are anticipating very long lines in the evening.. but we are a pretty small precinct... some of the bigger precincts in Georgia have terribly long lines.
I hardly waited at all, after all the news said here in Virginia we would be waiting hours! I brought a magazine to read, but I never took it out of my pocket. In and out. Go Obama!
Great picture of Ben....That's a keeper if I ever saw one. The picture, I mean, obviously you don't need me to tell you that you should hold onto Ben. :-)
I'm with Joe - Obama.
I went at suppertime and it took me longer to park and walk in than to actually vote. It was the quickest I've ever experienced and with all the hype on the news about the lines, my small town escaped. Sure hope all the people went out earlier to place their votes.
We went to vote early in the morning, before the work.
We had a lot of people in the school gym, but lines moved very quickly. I thing that new voting system worked really well. We had very plain and simple paper ballot, which have to be filled and dropped in the box,which looked suspiciously like paper shredder, but people at the exit assured us that it is not a paper shredder. At least my vote was not shredded, it seems that CT went to Obama.

My vote was not helpful. GA went to McCain.
Things do look tentatively positive on the national front, though. I'm going to bed with my fingers crossed!
I also want to go to bed but am telling myself that this is such a big moment in history that I need to be awake to see it on TV. I'll suffer tomorrow morning when my alarm goes off at 5:40 for work.
I saw on TV that GA went for McCain.
I did not go to bed yet, even so I feel that I should.
I liked their speeches - I hope their will live to fulfill them.
I am too tired to say anything coherent.
And I am so proud that we choose Obama as a president!
