Voting




As cliche as it sounds, I'm glad to live in a country where I have the right to express my opinions on many issues including who is going to represent me. So today I'm going to vote and I encourage you to do the same when you can.

You may wonder why I'm voting early. I'm going with Theodore who won't be able to make it to the polls on November 6th. However if I'm going to do a full disclosure, here it is. I heard that once you vote, your name will be taken off the call rosters and you won't get any more political calls. I hope it's true. I don't think I can stand another political ad whether it's by phone, mail, sign, or TV.

Note: I have a good example of exercising your right to vote. My mother, who is 82 years old, has never missed voting in an election--local or national. I think that's impressive.
