The Big Day is Finally Here

This may be one of the most important elections of my lifetime. I hope that everyone gets out and votes today. As always, I don't care who you vote for, just so long as you get out there and cast a ballot. I'm amazed by the number of people who have already cast ballots through early/absentee voting. Maybe this time the election won't be decided before all the polls close.

While I'm tired of all the ads, tired of the negative campaigning, and really annoyed by all the campaign phone calls that have clogged our answering machine, I realize how important this election is. I've ranted about voter turnout before. I think there are few excuses for not making it to the polls. In Wisconsin, you can register AT THE POLLS! Remind your friend, family, neighbors, acquantances, everyone to vote! Make sure you allow extra time when you head out there today... the lines will be long. Be patient with the poll workers, cast your vote, and wear your "I Voted" sticker with pride. I know I will.

Let me know that you voted... leave me a comment, and remember, I'm a journalist. Keep those comments non-partisan!
