Being American

I went to the polls today after my first class. I got there around 10:10am, what I thought would be an off-peak time given that many folks of voting age have work during the day. I was surprised at the line when I got there, and by the fact that it kept growing. This is apparently a good sign that people actually care about this election. Though I heard the man and woman behind me discussing several issues, one of which I think but am not sure was a joke, that there was expected to be 105% voter turnout this year.

If you're reading this post, and it is still Tuesday Nov 2, and you haven't voted, stop reading and contribute to that 105!
