Happy Super Fat Tuesday! As Mardi Gras winds down, and the last party revs up in San Diego, I'd like to recount my voting day for you.
First off, I'm a registered Libertarian. So, I had thought I might be able to vote as a Democrat possibly due to the open election, just to try it out. But, as I found out thanks to These Days, I couldn't. So, I decided to head out to my polling place.
On the drive, I was confused over who to vote for. The choices, in my mind, were narrowed down to George Phillies, Steve Kubby, or Christine Smith. Now, I had the chance to hear Christine Smith speak before thanks to her radio show, and she has a good head on her shoulders.
And as I agree with some Democrats that it is time for a woman to be
in the White House (and I like the cut of her jib!), I decided to vote
for her.
So next up is to vote itself! I rode up to my temple,
which also happened to be my nearest voting place. And who do I see
but Amy, one of the reporters for KPBS! We chuckled over that, and she
said she didn't have to interview ME, as I could just blog about it.
Which I'm doing now, as we speak.
Overall, the voting itself was rather painless, and I'm now back home and blogging.
