And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Isn't it really the "Rent Is Too Damn High" party? Even better.
I think it is, but they don't print the swearing on the ballot.

I set my alarm last night intending to vote this morning because I got the okay to be late. Then morning happened. So I'm going to vote after work. I have my voter registration card, an out-of-state license (shut up, I'm lazy and it doesn't expire until 2008), a social security card, a major credit card, and several pieces of mail, so I'm hoping I'll be able to vote without having to return home for more "dude, I totally live here!" ammo.

I voted this morning and, as always, it was easy and no waiting. (Although I was told that there had been times this morning when there was a line.)

My current plan for today:
1) Work as little as possible.
2) Go vote.
3) Nappy times.
4) Make curried chicken salad.
5) Reap benefits of owning TiVo.

I voted, there was a line but only for the part of the alphabet I'm not in.
My vote for congress will go my way. My vote for senate will not go my way but will be close. Of the six issues I voted on, three will go my way but the three controversial ones will not. Almost everything else was unopposed.

shrift is me. But I knew it was going to happen, so didn't bother with the whole early alarm and all that. Hoping the past is an indication and the real rush is in the morning.

Ann, that's a ferret.
No real lines at my polling station at 6:45ish this morning.

We had a seriously complicated issue on the ballot which was pulled. Seems there was a last minute conflict surrounding the number of legal signatures to get the issue on the ballot. It was about workers' compensation (a HOT topic here in Ohio). But it included a provision that made it possible for people who are raped while on the job to get workers' compensation payments for missed work. I'm boggled that that wouldn't be allowed now. I mean, you'd have to take sick time for missed work or not get paid?

There was a bigger turnout that I expected, which is not good for my people. My precinct is very conservative (in a religious right sort of way as opposed to wealthy sort of way).
I'm annoyed by all the signs urging people to vote no on the Stem Cell issue. All the no signs are about stopping cloning and the amendment explicitly prohibits cloning.
Personally, I don't think cloning is all bad. I think there could be some good uses for cloning cells and the desire to prohibit it is mostly knee jerk reaction to the science fiction picture of cloning.
