Quick Public Service Announcement

I beg you, if you live in a state that allows for early voting, GO VOTE NOW. This year will have crazy turnout everywhere, and I already personally know of people who have been wrongly removed from the voter rolls. If you vote early, you may have time to get your registration straightened out. If you find out at the polls that something has gone wonky, you're stuck filling out a provisional ballot, many of which never get counted. And that way lies madness.

Please vote early, and tell everyone you know to vote early, too. I don't care who they're voting for; this isn't a partisan thing for me. Passions are running very high in this country right now. Every person in an early voting state can do their part to make election night go as smoothly as possible and prevent Chris Matthews's and Steve Doocy's heads from actually exploding on air in overexcitement. As entertaining as that might be.

Thank you for listening. Everyone should now go and watch the new Lost preview on YouTube. Good night, and have a pleasant tomorrow.

There is ONE early voting location in Los Angeles and it would take me at least 2.5 hours via transit. ugg.

was going to wait until the day of, but now that i see that the polls are open on saturdays, i might drag my ass out there tomorrow. (no early voting near enough to my work to make it there and back over lunch.) i just had to get my voter card reissued because those dumbfucks spelled my name wrong... so with my luck something will go awry.

We voted last weekend. Yay us!

We have the day off because of homecoming (yeah), so I voted my balls off!

I didn't have a problem, but the lady in front of me almost got rejected because her signature didn't exactly match her driver's license.
