    I'll go after work; fortunately the polls in New York are open until 9 PM and my polling place is across the street!

    Relief from endless negative ads from New York, New Jersey and Connecticut! In one hour 90% of the ads were political last night.

    Sara, I have a good, long time friend, who knew me "when" (when I was married to my ex-husband). He even told me this morning, on the telephone, that he could remember seeing me in line at the poll, 15 years ago, with my baby (Helen) in the stroller, at 7 am, so I could get my vote in. He said it always struck him that I was a serious voter because it would have been so easy for me to have not voted that year, with the baby and all. But I always have and I always will. And like you, I like having my husband with me when I go to vote, but unfortunately this time around, Scott didn't anticipate having to be out of town so much, so he did not do an absentee ballot and has been gone for two weeks now. Wish I could have voted for him!

    That's one of the reason I get an absentee ballot.....but it isn't as fun!

    (Maybe you can sneak in and vote for Scott... )

    I don't know a lot of our results, but I do know that our Governor, Mark Sanford, has been re-elected. I'm happy with that!!!

    We never miss voting and I am another who loves to go with hubby. We may argue all the way to the polls so it isn't romantic , but it is something we always do together.

    I hear more and more about folks voting absentee, but I still want the experience of election day and going to the polls. We get to see folks we only see once or twice a year. Our old mayor and his wife are always there, some of the older citizens and neighbors...and it is part of the experience. But, it was pretty crowded this year.
