@JCCovi: @Canoli: @Pollywog: @Foodnerd81: @irene:
I have multiple problems with voting tomorrow. Not only do I find that none of the candidates are suitable for running the country but I would have to walk a mile to vote with two toddlers whining about being out for a walk and certainly trying to cause chaos at the polls. SO works out of town all week and I have no family around to watch the kids. With all those factors I find it easier to say no to voting. I feel obligated to vote, yes, but my children come first and they are just not comfortable around most other people.
-
@littleblessings: I agree that my children come first - my children are a big reason I'm voting. I hope you find a way. I've heard lots of YMCAs are having childcare for people while they vote.
-
As an immigrant, I can't, but I am pushing DH and everyone else I know to (actually, DH has already)
-
Absolutely! No early voting in CT, unfortunately, so up early tomorrow for it.
-
Yes very much looking forward to it!! There's no early voting in my state so tomorrow is it!
-
yep, walking my absentee (and DH's) ballot to the local polling place to hand them in with my two daughters!
-
I voted in September!
-
Uhh yeah dude. I find it morally irresponsible not to. Local elections and ballot initiatives are important too!
-
Just got back from voting in Virginia! We got to our polling location a little before 6:00am, when the polls opened, and there was decent line already. When I left it was at least twice as long.
-
I will go tonight. My husband, who can not vote, has told me that he is going to come too. I am not sure if it's because he's worried about my physical well being or he just wants to see the spectacle.
We have a ton of important local elections happening, my state is in a very bad place right now and we need to get the current bad apples out of state government.
-
Yup. My kindergartener must have heard about the election from other kids. So this morning she asked DH and I who we were voting for and we said Hilary Clinton, and she's like oh yeah I've heard of her. I haven't explained to her yet that we've never had a female president, it is just nice that it doesn't occur to her that there would be an artificial limitation.
-
Just voted! It went very smoothly, turnout looks decent and no one was trying to harass the voters. Yay!
-
@Maysprout: ha, "I've heard of her" -- so cute! It's crazy because I remember we did a vote in my kindergarten class, and I voted for Bill Clinton. And now as an adult, I got to actually vote for Hillary.
-
@Maysprout: My sister is a kindergarten teacher and her school did a mock election last week. She heard some interesting comments like "I'm voting for Trump because he's going to send all the brown people back where they belong"
-
@MrsSCB: Haha I always heard stories of my mom getting me to talk about Bill Clinton during the 1992 election (I was 3) and now my son is turning 3 next week.
-
I really hope my kindergarten kiddo votes today. We talked about the candidates in the only terms I could find appropriate for her. And we certainly talked about how HRC could be our first girl president. And Trump could be making a career change. She wants to vote for George Washington
-
Went this morning but was packed.. So I went to work instead. Will go after work!
-
Hillzyeah!
-
Done and done!
-
I'm going after work. I expect long lines so I packed a sandwich and fully charged my Kindle for the wait. I'll wait as long as it takes!
-
I went before work this morning. No lines in our small town, luckily.
If you are on the fence about voting and lean Dem at all, PLEASE go vote. It is a really close race for getting back the senate, and even if you don't love Hillary as the presidential candidate your vote really counts in the other races.
-
Just voted! I was afraid lines were going to be long and it would be raining, so I'd be stuck outside waiting with a newborn. Especially since my polling place was a standin for 4 other polling places that flooded this year and had to be moved.
But luckily it wasn't like that at all! There was 1 person in front of me for me precinct and it took maybe 5 minutes. Yeah!
-
Took me an hour to stand in line and vote this AM. Totally worth it! I am feeling slightly relieved now that I have done my part.
-
@MrsSCB: I remember voting for Bill Clinton in our 3rd grade election. And in 7th grade I was so excited to see a female running, 3rd party granted, I voted for her in our mock election. Today it looks like I was able to combine Them both.
-
I early voted!
-
The line was LONG at my polling place this morning! But I voted!!
-
Our line was HUGE but moved quickly--only took about 30 minutes!
-
@littlebug: I'm going after work too and have a snack and a book packed in my bag, as well as I'll have my phone fully charged!
-
I took my kiddos to the polls this morning.
-
Going with both kids in a few hours. I don't think we get stickers though
haha
-
Our family of four went at 11am. We're with her!
-
Voted before work! I live in a smaller suburb and was in and out in 5 minutes.
-
Proudly voted this morning!!!!
-
I early voted on Halloween in my suffragette costume. And I teared up when marking my ballot. I'm with her...and I'm so excited!
-
Yup, I voted last week!
-
I voted on the first day of early voting, so I was anxious to get to the polls!
haha
