Already did that this morning... my 18yo son too... he wasn't sure he was properly registered... he tried to register on line... and wasn't sure it went through... so I figured it didn't hurt to ask.

they couldn't find his name... but with the new rules they registered him this morning and he voted also...

not sure how he voted... but right or wrong he voted...

when I turned 18 my father said the same to me... that it didn't matter if I was right or wrong... I was 18 and I would vote.. end of discussion... told both my kids the same... and so it is...

Frenchie:

I was voter no. 5 in my ward this morning. Got it done early to be a good role model to the students and faculty. I would have been earlier , but I allowed the senior citizens to go ahead of me. Do a good turn daily still runs deep in my personality.

Mi esposa and I will embark on the biannual trek of futility once she gets home from school.

Wouldn't be so bad if we had actual choices for candidates instead of the overwhelming feeling that we're doing nothing more than voting for the lesser of two evils. Regardless, as I say, if you don't vote, you have no right to b*tch.

Ahhh, politics in Ohio.

YOS,

Voted on my way to school this morning. Later, one of my 18 yr old students, who had cast his first ballot, was bummed that they didn't have an "I Voted" sticker for him. I gave him the one from my shirt and "made his day". It felt good.

I;ve watched elections in a number of countries around the world over the years and spent a long night in a Moscow suburb polling place back in the 1990s watching the Russians get used to a new political life. I think they liked the change even if their choices were still somewhat limited.

After apparently thinking her mother and I were a bit crazy about making sure we voted every chance we got, my college sophmore and first time voter daughter seems this year to understand us a bit better. She cast an absentee ballot while home from college on a short visit a couple of weeks ago. My wife did the same last week when she realized that her early departing airline flight this morning would keep her from voting. I voted this morning in the midst of a pretty good turnout that included a mix of morning commuters and retirees - and one guy who they helped to the head of the queue because he was on his way to the hospital where his wife was under care and he would be spending the rest of the day there - they actually slipped him into the line in front of me. Glad to oblige him.

Let the post-election bitching and moaning begin!

..and it was easy as usual. Just take the pen and connect the broken arrow pointing at the candidate of your choice. Good thing there's those elderly ladies that volunteer to work the polls. My son gets to vote in 2008.

As my friend Ran Ou tells my other friend Kamlesh Patel when he complains.....

"This is America! Get over it!"

Both these guys vote along with my co-workers Ranbir, Vang and Carman.

It's like a Kodak, Coke and Smile, Mom's Apple Pie moment!
