Did You Vote Today?
David In Indy:
I just got back from voting. Dad went too. I don't know why we bother though because he votes Republican and I vote Democrat and we cancel each other out! :laugh:
I told him this wouldn't happen if he'd just vote Democrat but he'll never do it. lol
He's a die-hard conservative Republican through and through. :-\
brokeplex:
David we have early voting here in TX, and Dusty and I voted last week.
Clearly your Dad and I are on the same page this year. :)
Lynne:
I'm heading there now.
Aloysius J. Gleek:
I voted! I wanted to vote for (all Dems, natch) on the Working Family ticket, but I was afraid, like a 2000 Floridian Retirees stumped with the butterfly ballot, I'd f*ck it up; so I just voted the straight Dem ticket. (So sorry, Matt Damon, I apologize!)
In re voting the straight ticket, for me, Gary Wills said it best in this last weekend's NYTMagazine interview with Deborah Solomon:
"I always vote the party. It’s ridiculous not to. You may like a person who is Republican, but if you vote for that person, you’re voting for all the apparatus that comes along with it."
