For any problems voting - call 866 Our Vote - for Election Protection! There is a lot of information and resources out there to help you take control of your vote. I recommend this podcast of The Joan Kenley Show, a conversational radio show with lots of themes, this one being "every vote must count": The Joan Kenley Show - Every Vote Must Count

Good Post

and reminder that "Democracy isn't Free." - i.e. we will All pay taxes no matter Who Wins.

Every 4 years, I ask those who are angry or disgusted with who got elected whether THEY voted....often they are the one to respond, "er, well, um No."

VOTE EARLY!

One outcome with an Obama win and a greater Democratic majority in Congress is serious election reform that the Republicans have blocked for eight years.

The fact that we spend $millions to promote free and fair elections in Iraq, Afghanistan and around the world while our own system is so flawed hopefully will be corrected before 2012.

The US isn't a democracy. It's an oligarchical dictatorship. It use to be a constitutional republic, but it was never a democracy.
