Some of us like going to the polls. You see your neighbours in a political context and as equals. You might see your landlord or your boss at the polls, but right there, you're equal. And, as Rousseau said, it's the only day the people are in power. That's a good feeling. My kids enjoy the polls, too.
Having said all that, i voted early this time.
