    Did my duty this morning and voted!

    Part of the machines in Kentucky were shut down because people voting straight democrat weren't getting to vote for all the dem candidates. ;)

    It's a conspiracy I tell ya!

    (On a side note I think anyone voting a straight party ticket should be ashamed - because 95% of the time they have no idea how any of the people they voted for will represent them)

    yeah, the Barack-lover extraordaire didn't even vote because she couldn't find her polling place.

    I'm going to rub it in her face how I was part of this historic election of our first President of color and she wasn't.

    :p

    yeah, there was some mixup and her name wasn't in the computer when she tried to check, so she has no idea where she can vote.

    Don't they allow provisional votes? We now have voting center in Indina, it is great, you get to vote at any of the twenty centers in the county!

    I don't know, but she's stuck at UH right now and I'm at work until 7.... so maybe somebody there could take her to a poll or she can get a free cab ride...

    Anybody know about these provisional ballots in Houston?

    Wow, that's cool that you're in a state where your presidential vote could actually make a difference.
