Wow, I'm all responsible and stuff.
Just voted absentee, and I don't mind telling youse guys that I filled in the circle next to Obama's name -- just like I did during the primaries. Now, if Ralph Nader doesn't fuck over yet another Democrat, I'll be happy. [Sorry, Nader supporters! He just seems like a whackjob to me, and his 2% of the vote inevitably screws someone over, every election.]
Even though I've only seen Obama supporters being warned about this, I think there's something all American voters should know about on November 4th, regardless of who they're voting for. If you live in Delaware, Kansas, Minnesota, Montana, New Jersey, New York, South Carolina, Texas, Tennessee, or Vermont [or some parts of Pennsylvania] do NOT wear buttons, tee shirts, or other memorabilia in support of your candidate of choice to the polling stations. There's a law in effect in those states that states that campaigning is not allowed within 150-200 feet of polling stations, and you WILL be turned away at the door if your candidate's name or logo is emblazoned anywhere on your person.
So, November 4th, vote. But if you live in one of those states leave your Obama tee shirt at home; it's a misdemeanor crime not to.
