I was pleased to be able to do a write-in vote against the St Louis County prosecutor, who is otherwise running unopposed.
Just keep walking, preacher-man.

Voting achieved. I don't have to get anything else done today if I've done that, right? Right.

Since I work for the city, I get off of work today! So this is literally true for me.

I voted last week, so no long waits at the polls for me. (Somehow my parents and I ended up with the same regular voting location despite me living downtown and them on the southwest edge of town. Which tells me that location is going to be swamped with many thousands of voters today and a parking lot that holds about 60 cars.)

I voted last Tuesday. I'd also like to have the option to opt out of political ads. Some of them have gotten very nasty in the last few days. I don't normally go "Dude, you did not say that!" to the radio.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I was in WI this weekend and the ads there were so much worse than the IL ones. Hard to fathom.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Since Cincinnati is right across the river from Kentucky, we get political ads for Kentucky, and the McConnell/Grimes race is FIERCE. I'm so glad it's over today, because I am so sick of those ads.

Sigh, our pizza for the lunch meeting tomorrow has been cancelled because people didn't chip in their $5. I was counting on not having to think about that meal, dammit.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Wisconsin politics have gotten 100 times scarier since I left 23 years ago.

In DC we get ads from Maryland and Virginia; and I've had an unprecedented number of city campaign calls - both real people and robocalls.
On the bright side ... whatever the results of any election, if someone asks how you feel, responding "I'm just so glad it's over" is acceptable to everybody.
