Got to my polling place - conveniently located across the street from my house - at 5:59 in the hopes of avoiding a long wait. I was 10th in line. My hopes of a quick in and out, however, were rapidly dashed. The seniors running my polling place were a bit disorganized, probrecitos. The simple task of looking up names in the district book took frustratingly long, a committee of elders seemingly needed to confer on each name. The grumbling of discontent grew in tandem with the length of the line behind me. About thirty minutes after arriving, civic duty complete, I walked out (skipped?) past a line of about 100, many looking at me with a hint of envy and chagrin.

it took me 5 minutes to vote...I went around 4pm..no lines at all.
The GOP volunteer/judge looked up my name and gave me my ballot---I felt like asking him if he had any extras, as a joke...or to tell him, "how about dropping your pants for the beating your party is about to take?!?!" but I stayed focused so that I could avoid any delays.
I was really worried that some election shannigans would take place and we would once again be robbed of our say...thank god it did not happen....
although some sour grapes are claiming obama bought the election since he had 600 million to spend on his campaign....BOOO HOOO!!
suck it down bastards...I see it as people paying 600 million to get rid of the GoPs!
so now that Obama is the President-elect, where do I sign up for my socialist stipend? oh wait, thats alaska...my bad...*smirk*
