After reading about the lines for early voting, I’m starting to wonder when I will need to get up on Tuesday to be able to vote before work.

I waited in line for an hour and fifteen minutes on Saturday for early voting. Glad I wasn’t in a hurry, but I would have waited twice as long if necessary. I know Texas is going for McCain, but Harris County (Houston area) might not, and all the down-ballot folks need our votes.

As is noted on my car, I am voting Obama/Biden. I am in the battleground state of Florida and part of me wants to write on my car “It’s ok to vote for Obama, Really!”

I have to confess my ignorance – I wasn’t aware that was an issue anywhere, but it totally makes sense. I guess I just never thought about it.
