Please keep discussion on today's events as they unfold here, so I can easily follow them and don't have to browse oddly-named threads on their 45th pages.

Thanks!

I'm not going to be told by Beets"R"Us what to do. :angry:

Snoop has pretty good handwriting.

Obama's jump shot is a pretty compelling reason to vote for him.  :)

Better then mine.  I can't even read mine.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I voted. :)

There was a line, but it still took less thAn 10 minutes for the entire process. Riley went with me so she could see the process in action, and she was sorely disappointed that I wouldn't write-in Joe Biden for president. :D She asked if I knew who all of the candidates were, and I told her that of course I did, I'd done my research before walking into the booth. She seemed impressed, and hopefully, it will mean something for her when she gets to vote.

Since at the moment she wants to be a politician, I suppose now is the time to learn that not all voters do know all of the candidates or the issues, but rather vote straight ticket. Sad, yet true.

Where is a good website to watch things unfold, by the way? Languish is nice and all, but sometimes you guys are a little slow with the info.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Send her to college.  She will be properly indoctrinated.

My polling place was a hot mess. There were like 5 election districts assigned to vote there and when you got in, you had to just blindly find out what line was for your district.  Though my line ended up being short - my district voted really slow. Took about 20 minutes - probably about the longest I've ever had to wait.

Also ballot sucked as there were some judge positions where it said pick any 3 and there were only 3 choices.
