Ok I guess I am the only one that plans to sit at home with my ballot, a glass of wine and some sort or patriotic dinner to voice my American opinion.

Not sure. last time i voted I actually went down to the polling place.

it was easy :)

This last election is Denver was awful. Went to the tattered cover at lunch (Denver) and the line was 2 hours long! Then went after work to another polling place and it was 3 hours before we got to vote. The upside was that we got some nice pretzels and bottled water as we waited and I got to see every picture the lady in front of me had of her schnauzer.

We usually go right up the rode to the polling place, vote, and get are "i voted" stickers haha. I usually dont wear mine though.

Where i live the votes dont really count anyway...

Why don't votes count?

Votes always count!
If you vote, it gives you the right to complain about who won.
If you don't vote, you have not earned the right to complain.

Voting also lets me cancel all the votes my husband voted on! (ex: new school levy failed every election til he forgot to vote & I voted, it passed!)

LOL ok, it won by more than 1 vote!
anyway , to answer your question, I will also go get my "I voted" sticker at the polls.

I dont live in one of the "key states". Votes dont count that much here. If i moved back to Iowa, however, they would, OF COURSE.

If you don't vote, your vote doesn't count.

another way your vote doesn't count is if you and everyone else who also would vote like you thought the same way.

In Colorado 6% of the republicans turned out. if even 10 person of those republicans were secret Ron Paul supporters and came out to the caucses that day, Ron Paul would have won Colorado in a landslide victory.

it is just one of those things that has to be put into perspective.

Where i live there have been no voting problems, so it really isn't a concern for me.

but the voting problems in Florida always seem to make national news. It must hard living there trying to vote.

My husband and I have already voted mail-in ballots and we always plan on doing it this way.

We should remember that none of the mail-in ballots got counted in 2004, not even from the military. So it's simple for me to know that Bush is not the president of the United States. Other than declaring that in 2004, the Supreme Court made sure he was put in office in 2000. I have big doubts that Bush was elected for anything at all. Maybe in 3rd grade, his class voted him in as chalkboard and eraser cleaner.
