I've always loved me some Gil Elvgren chicks.

As Meg Frost says:

Vote vote vote!

Cast a leetle vote!

Vote vote vote!

Like a baby stote!

Or something like that.

Y'all know that episode of Girls Next Door (bear with me here) when Holly's picking the centerfold and Hef has to decide if he likes it and she's all sing-songy: "The anticipation... is killin' me..."

That's me right now. I'm comfort-eating all day today.

I was first in line at my polling place! And there were three older Black couples behind me (I am Black, I live in a White area and was convinced my dad and I make up the entire Black population) and we smiled and then one of the women prayed and I teared up and it was incredible.

YES WE CAN!

I gave a cold shoulder to a few "Yes on Prop 8" folks who greeted me before I walked into my polling place in California. That felt great.

Sadly, there were about a dozen people attaching pro-Prop 8 signs on a freeway overpass while I was driving to work. I almost gave them the birdie on behalf of newlywed Skinny Bones Jones.

That outfit is so hot, I might wear it to vote. Wait, what it's women supposed to wear it?

Nuts. ;)

I'll agree the donkey and the elephant are the most cute I've seen.

@Alohamaid: It's my sister's birthday today, too. I told her I got her a new president. Not singlehandedly, but still. What a great birthday present, eh?

I'm going into the lab after I vote, so no open toed shoes, but I did put on fancy undies this morning. I have anxiety issues, so I just started myself on a steady diet of klonopin yesterday that will remain in effect until Wednesday morning. Seriously trying not to hyperventilate, especially since many of the midtown polling places in my area got all of their voter rolls switched around this AM and people had to leave. Hope they all get back. It's a hyper-blue area of town and Missouri is so on the fence.

I mailed my OHIO vote in a few weeks ago from the UK. I filled it in and my husband walked it down to the little red post box for me while I stayed with the kids. I felt slightly euphoric as it went, slightly worried though - not being in person will it be counted?

My sister was in the Board of Elections building (voting early) one week ago and she said the number of crates of absentee ballots they had piled up was INSANE. She said the whole place was full of them and she was worried they would even be able to process them all before the election. :( (Indeed, They DIDN't bother counting the absentee ballots in 2004, which I think is shameful).

They need to sort this stuff out. Everyone's vote should be counted. Not just those they have time too, or those people who have time to wait for hours in a line. I hope all the trouble that the Democrats make election reform a HUGE thing during this next term.

oh and - GO OBAMA!

Am I the only one who can't vote because she only has a greencard yet?

Although I've been badgering anyone I knew to vote, so maybe this counts for something?

I live in Chicago, so in this state an Obama sweep is guarenteed... Let's hope the entire country goes blue...

@Extraordinary_supergoddess: I was at the parking garage yesterday and the attendant saw my obama button. She asked me if I voted, I said yes and asked her if she did. She hesitated and said "I can't, I'm a not a citizen". I looked at her and told her, "that's okay, I voted for you". She got teary eyed and said "someday, I will vote". There are alot of noncitizen family members in my family that I think about when I pull the lever...I carry them with me in the voting booth..
