Vote Happy

It might be raining and gray and miserable but damn.... it's a great day!

Hooray for being part of an election that isn't soul crushing and bleak.

Hooray for being able to vote by mail and have weeks to research your votes thanks to Oregon's voting system.

Interesting note - the county I grew up in had a total of 3358 votes. This is a prime example of why population numbers kind of don't register with me. I'm from one of the largest counties in Oregon in terms of space/land and probably the most sparsely populated. One person per square mile. I was looking at the state breakdown of counties and noticed that. 3358 votes..... at most 7000 people in 8,358 square miles.
