Voting
 

I went and voted today! But mainly because my husband dragged me to it. Otherwise I would not have known about the early voting.

The lines were long because we went during the last hour.

I educated myself on most of the candidates, but some I had no idea about and had to randomly pick between 2 candidates. O.O

I'll do better next time!

I voted by mail, because I don't like waiting in line at the polls...and it's nice to have the ballot there to be able to look at who all the people are. All the county election names I had never heard before. Had to look 'em all up...But hey, I did it, and yay for that.

I voted by mail, too. I moved here recently so I had to research all of the local stuff, like Governor and Senate and the propositions. I am so glad I could do all of that from home on my own time, without the stress of being somewhere where people were waiting for me to finish quickly.

Hmm, voting my mail. I have never done that before. I should try that next time.
Sounds very convenient.

Some states require you to have a reason to vote from home, but in my state anybody can, which is great

I also voted by mail so I didn't have to deal with crowds of people and I could look up every person and measure at my own pace.

I'll vote if they'll let me. I only have forwarded mail to show my new address, nothing else since I moved in with my parents and haven't gotten a new state ID.
