Did *my* duty
I woke up early and couldn't go back to sleep, so I got up "early" and voted. Yay, no lines! Boo, no receipts. In light of the fact that whoever comes first on a ballot does a bit better, I'd like to note that I think the Republicans were listed first.
Discovery: now that we need IDs to vote, expired IDs are okay if they were good in the last general election, or something -- mine expired in 05 but was good in 04, so good for now.
I didn't do all my duty; I had no idea what to do for judges and the school board. And school boards matter.
Afterwards I went to Sahara Mart, and discovered a sign for the Libertarian Party. Well, that's subject to interpretation. What it actually said was
DUE TO STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS WE ARE PROHIBITED FROM SELLING ALCOHOL ON ELECTION DAY
WTF? I think we need a Brain Mangler meme. "Logic goes WHERE?"
P.S. In Unix one hits Ctrl-W to erase a word. In Windows, this erases a window. For once, LJ's saved draft feature was useful and had most of my text.
