ROCK THE (LOCAL) VOTE!
As many of you don't know, today there are local elections for many counties in the area here. If you'd like to see what's up for vote in your county, check here. I know that it's not a big election day, but remember that today's local school board member can be tomorrow's President. (Okay, not literally tomorrow, but work with me, people.)
In a related note, I've never felt so ostracized for exercising my civic duty. The most common reaction I've gotten today from people seeing my "I Voted" sticker has been, "What the hell did you vote for?" The other reaction has been, "Yeah, I knew it was an election, but I don't really care." Sweet Jeebus.

And then you get weird people like me who wanted to vote but couldn't because their city was so uninterested in voting that it didn't even bother to have an election. Sigh. Sure they could've come up with *something* to put on the ballot?
