The Right To Vote

I voted today.
Left work early.
Waited in line at the Bountiful Library for an hour.
Gave my name.
Verified my address (okay my parents address).
Handed my picture ID.
Then proceed to the electronic voting machine.
Inserted card.
The moment I have been waiting for was finally here: Casting my vote for President.

John McCain or Barack Obama or John McCain or Barack Obama or John McCain or Barack Obama...wait...what about Ralph Nader? Hmmmm....

Decision made and vote cast.

Judges? Do I really have to vote for JUDGES? Who are these Judges anyway? What have they done for ME lately?
Amendments to the constitution....hmmm....should have read a little more about them....

Cast Ballot?
YES

And then I got my "I Voted" sticker.

I love being able to vote. I seriously love it. I would have stood in line for a lot longer than an hour for this right.

And now, I am glad I am done.
This is an interesting election.
I have a lot of mixed feelings.
It will definitely be an interesting 2, if not 4 years.

I am proud of you for doing America proud and voting. I was stupid and did not vote early now I will be stuck trying to vote with 2 kids on the loose.

Wow you said it completely who are these judges. They should give us more info for them maybe a biography or at least a photo.

I voted, and I'm still waiting to hear about our big California issue, Prop 8. Let's hope it passes.

Actually, this Sarah Franz is my sister. She just got married this summer, making her the third Sarah Franz that I know.
But she says it Fraaahhhnz, instead of France. So, lame!
