Dont forget to vote today!

I don't want to see a whole big political discussion, but I do want to see everyone exercise one of their most important rights as a citizen!

Yep already did it 8) I will be SOOOOO glad that now that it's over maybe I'll stop getting 10-12 political phone calls now. I actually stopped answering my phone for the past 3 days because it was ringing every 20 minutes ???

I liked it when they would try to put signs infront of our store id walk out there and throw them out. They don't even bother asking.

Small town voting observations.... Where we live we vote in a little library back room. At the back door exit area they had cases of bunches of free bananas.  Bananas!?  Huh?

Driving down to Detroit we saw signs placed directly in front of other signs, obviously to block them. I'm sure nobody said "yeah give me that Zahra sign so I can put a Johnson sign right in front of it... insulting right, heh heh yeah..."

For me this is what voting is all about!  If you don't vote you don't have the right to complain.  And everyone that knows me knows I like to complain!!!   :P

I know no one has passionate feelings on things like the presidential election or the proposals, so why don't we talk about those hard core decisions needing to be made today.  Like Governor of Wayne State, Oakland Community College trustees, Regents for UofM, etc - now I know everyone has passionate feelings about those elections!

If you don't vote Mark Bernstein for U of M Regent, you are a TRAITOR to our nation!
