I don't care who you're voting for. (Well, I do have my preferences, but they're less important right now.) What's important is that you vote.
I don't care if it's raining. Grab an umbrella and vote.
I don't care if you're one teeny little speck of red in a big blue state, a teeny speck of blue in a red state, or just another voter for the overwhelming majority party in your state. Your vote still counts - go vote.
I don't care if the polling place is far-away and inconvenient. Suck it up, get a ride or hop on a bus, and vote.
I don't care if you've been working phone banks for months, licking envelopes for your candidate, harassing little old ladies to register. Today is what it all comes down to: vote.
I don't care if you're completely apathetic, haven't watched television or read a newspaper in four years, don't even know the names of the candidates. Grab a newspaper this morning, flip through it, and vote.
I don't care if you're reading this on every blog on the internet. Here it is again: go out and vote.
And if you don't vote today ... I don't want to hear about it.
