I voted, did you?
Our sailors are doing their part, we, as citizens, must do ours. I am sick today from my dental work, I feel like throwing up, I had to walk to the polling place. But I voted. I don't like politics and never am quite certain all my choices are correct. But I voted. I don't like the current crop of politicians, or the ridiculous ads, or the confusion and debate. But I voted. I know voting doesn't get me selected for jury duty or raise my taxes or cause me any troubles, so I voted.
I have lived in countries where the elections are shams or certain groups are not allowed to vote. But I am an American, I have the right to vote. So I voted. I have the opportunity to exercise a right that otherwise I could lose, so I voted. I am trying to be a good citizen, so I voted. The constitution says I can vote, so I voted.
There is still time. If you can possibly go vote, GO VOTE. No weak excuses. Just go vote.

I voted. And like Anti M, I can't be sure I made all the right choices. But I did exercise my right to vote. And by the way, jury duty is cool. Everyone should have a chance. I'm still waiting for mine.

"Men [and women] are qualified for civil liberty in exact proportion to their disposition to put moral chains upon their own appetites, — in proportion as their love to justice is above their rapacity, — in proportion as their soundness and sobriety of understanding is above their vanity and presumption, — in proportion as they are more disposed to listen to the counsels of the wise and good, in preference to the flattery of knaves."
i voted also.

Some of my friends say no one should vote unless they have studied the issues and candidates and know what they are doing. I say you can vote for a monkey on a rock, and be as dumb as the rock, just vote. If the "informed" voters care, they'll get off their duffs and into the polling places.
I don't care if folks are right, left, liberal, conservative, moderate or crazy, they are all Americans. We are all in this together, we should all turn out and exercise our rights!

I stood in line for 45 minutes after work and I voted. I am proud to have the right to vote. Some countries don't. K
