Vote Early, Vote Often!

Whoever you're voting for, wherever you are, please be sure to vote this year.  Actually, vote every year, every election, whenever.  It's important to the country.  It's your duty as a citizen.  Think about the issues, think about the future, then vote.  Well, as my sweetie says, "unless you're an asshole.  Then, don't vote."

Nowadays it's easy to vote early.  As for voting often, well, please try to participate in all elections, not just the big ones.  This year, I am voting early.  I will be out of the country for awhile before election day, and don't want to get back and have to stand in line all day.  I wish I could leave now, to avoid the electioneering for the next few weeks.  Both sides are starting to annoy me, and if I'm not careful I'll get into political arguments with people.  I try not to say anything, but when I hear something clearly inaccurate I have to correct them.
