I'm going to the Wolf Center at 9 AM. I have to go by the polling station each way. I'll keep an eye on the line and pounce when it looks good. For those of you who have been here, it's across the street from the Post Office, two blocks away. (In the church annex, not the church proper.)Ian wrote:I would've voted first thing this morning, but the line looked too long and it was cold outside.
It's OK - I'm getting off early for a teacher conference anyway, so I'll vote in the middle of the day when almost nobody is there.
Election Day, USA!

So I suppose that means Obama then. A tip for those who want a cheap laugh at others' expense - go over to Rapture Ready after Obama's victory is announced. I'll never forget their reaction last time - TAKE ME NOW JESUS, TAKE ME NOW, etc.

I’m going to have a long day as I’m staying up to watch the results come in. 
“I wish no harm to any human being, but I, as one man, am going to exercise my freedom of speech. No human being on the face of the earth, no government is going to take from me my right to speak, my right to protest against wrong, my right to do everything that is for the benefit of mankind. I am not here, then, as the accused; I am here as the accuser of capitalism dripping with blood from head to foot.”
