I voted last Tuesday. Here in Colorado a ton of people took advantage of early voting. Now I just have to sit around and bite my nails for another 3 days. I've never been so nervous about an election.
John and I mailed our ballots in last week. It was so nice being able to vote without waiting in a long line, I don't know why more people don't do it. We live in the most densely populated county in FL, with about 1 million residents, and only 150,000 signed up for mail in ballots. There have been a lot of people voting early also, waiting in 2-3 hour lines. It is great to see the enthusiasm for this election.
I just went through this video at a friend's blog, so I'll post here what I posted there...
I've already been reading news articles about bona fide, registered voters being removed from the rolls. Sorry, but our system is overtly corrupt throughout. For quite some time now, our choice has merely been a lesser of two evils--liar "A" vs. liar "B." The only hope for true change anymore is revolution. Unfortunately the sheeple aren't quite ready, although I have heard the first stirrings here & there. I've been waiting all my life for a candidate that truly represents the antitheist anarchist/libertarian's point of view. Still no dice.
Well...if I was in the USA, that would make me vote! (...my fifteen year old daughter screamed with excitement every time Orlando Bloom appeared on the screen!!)
I'm there with you - oh not really - I voted on Monday night. But here's a good reason to ”Blog the Vote” and it’s worth a free cup of coffee – at Starbucks
Yeah, I'm with Janey, I think I should get to vote too - and so should the rest of the world since it seems we all get affected by what happens in the US. It's unreasonable, but there ya go.
Ello is short for Ellen Oh. Transplanted from Brooklyn, NY, I'm a lawyer, a writer, and a college instructor now living near the nations capital. I have three smart, beautiful little girls and an ultra-supportive husband who tells me to write every day so that maybe, one day, I'll actually get a book published. I'm repped by the amazing Joe Monti of Barry Goldblatt Literary. And what do you know, Da Man was right! My first book, Prophecy,Prophecy Series Bk 1, is being published by HarperTeen for release in Winter 2013! Life is very good.

It's too bad they couldn't get any real stars for this one.
I attempted to vote early today, but it was going to be a 2 hour wait. Will try again on Tuesday.
Personally because the fate of the world might be decided on November 4th I think I should get a vote too...
Where does Sacha Baron-Cohen get the balls from?

I need to "get 'er done."
I always put it off to the last minute. Don't know why.
I never forget and I always vote. Just wish I'd do it sooner - rather than later. Maybe next time.
I would, but then there's that whole not-American-and-not-living-in America thing to get over.
I'll be voting, too!
in NOT voting..hahahaha.
Loved it!! Thanks for sharing that, Ello!
After all, voting is more American than apple pie or baseball (and I live in Philly-- so that's sayin' something!)
