Hey, all...

I just wanted to encourage everyone to vote tomorrow.  Frankly, I don't care 
whether you are Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, or a member of the Raving 
Monster Loony Party (oops, that's only in the U.K.).  Voting will only take 5 
minutes out of your day, and you can smugly wear a sticker the rest of the 
day!

Honestly, though, even if you're disappointed in the major races, there are 
many local races and issues that deserve a considered vote.  These are the 
people who go on to run for the elevated offices down the line, and if we 
want a better choice in our elections we need to start locally.  I just leave 
races I am unhappy with blank, usually.

Plus, there's a statewide ballot issue for streamlining the constitutional 
rules on how land is transferred to the state Nature and Historic Preserve 
which is interesting in and of itself.  Ballot issues are really the most 
fun, because we all get to cast a direct vote on an issue.

This is a well-informed, well-educated bunch of people.  We can make a 
difference.

OK, I'll get off the soapbox now.  Thanks for your consideration.  Do I sound 
like I'm running for office, or what?  :)
