Today is the day I've been waiting for, its time to vote! Its 7:36am and I'm about to go to the polling station.Its 9:50am, I'm back and I Baracked the vote! The line was long and the wait was boring. I was late for work too, but I don't care, this election is too important to put a dollar value on.

It seems that as much jubilation there is over Obama winning the Presidency, there is an equal amount of fury about his win. I have noticed in one yard there is a sign saying “USA – Died November 04, 2008. USSA – Born November 04, 2008.” I’m guessing the USSA stands for “United Socialist States of America.” That’s probably taking things a bit too far. But, as I have stated co
Hey!So on Tuesday, I asked you guys to send in pictures of what you wore to vote or pix of yourself after you finished voting. A few of you sent in some fabulousness. Let's check it out!First Adrienne says, "I am a sophomore at Tuskegee University! Since this is my first presidential election, not only did I have to vote, but I had to look cute and represent Obama as well!""... The shirt has a pic

Today, this Election Day, millions of Americans are reporting to the polls to place their votes for the candidates they feel worthy to lead them. If you haven't already gone out to do that great civic duty, please take a few minutes to ponder the choices laid out before you. 1 Samuel 8 (NIV):
When Samuel grew old, he appointed his sons as judges for Israel.

Wow, it was a zoo yesterday trying to vote at City Hall. I swung by early in the morning before work and the line was already really long. There was no way I'd be able to wait it out and still make it to work on time. So I ended up going again around 4pm and the line was definitely a lot more manageable.The Line Wasn't Too Bad at 4pmMy Ballot - This Is My First Time Ever VotingElection Party at Th

This is the 9th straight presidential election I have participated in since I started voting. I am ashamed to say, I did not vote until I was 25 years old. I just was interested in one thing; women. I still am. Just not at the expense of everything else! It was the second time I have voted for a third party candidate. In 2000, I voted for George W. Bush much to my dismay now. In 2004 I

After months of seemingly non-stop campaigning today America finally votes on a new President.At one stage it seemed that the race was actually between Obama and Hillary Clinton, but now the final countdown is between Obama and McCain.
It would have been nice to have a female President, but I think it will be equally groundbreaking to have the first black President to usher in a new era of change
As the Election buzz reaches a climax, I think Al Mohler’s previous comments on this year’s Presidential campaigns are helpful: The rhetoric of the race, and the rhetoric of many evangelicals, is disturbing. This race is important and necessarily so. We are talking about the next President of the United States, after all. But evangelicals have invested far too much hope in the political proces

Around the nation, today is a very important day in politics. It’s also a landmark day in the history of our nation, as political, gender and racial barriers will be broken no matter what the outcome. Either the first woman Vice President or the first African-American president will be elected today, re-defining hundreds of years of American politics. It’s an exciting [...]

Today is Election Day for all of my fellow Americans. So, I wanted to take this opportunity to urge everyone to make the effort and to take the time to go and vote. I know that it will be a pain in the ass to get out of work in order to run over to your polling center. And I know that we all have busy schedules and hectic lives. And we all know that the lines to vote are going to be insanely long.

Well, as my grandpa used to say, “The hay’s in the barn.” Senators Obama and McCain can sit back and basically relax. That is easier said than done.

I've voted in every election I've been eligible for since I turned 18. This will be the first year I'm not voting. I think I've finally realized how absurd it is.

Just a reminder that Tuesday is school board election day in New Jersey in communities where there are elected school boards. That means locally, residents in East Newark and Harrison won't be going to the polls. Residents in Jersey City, Kearny, Nutley, North Arlington, Bloomfield, Lyndhurst and Belleville will go to the polls, which are open from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m.Turnout at school board elections is usually small, but this is the one opportunity residents have a direct say about a budget.In Kearny, reports say there won't be an increase in taxes if the budget passes.We'll have results from some of the local elections tomorrow as they flow in. And don't forget the two candidates we highlighted yesterday: Steve Rogers in Nutley and Debbie Wertalik in North Arlington.Also, don't forget today

However, we will be liveblogging the results tonight. Please keep in mind, however, we won’t be able to do that until we complete our “Texas Two Step” and go to our caucus tonight.

Today is Election Day in Denmark and even though this is not a political blog, I really urge everyone to cast their vote. I honestly don't care what party you vote for, as long as you remember to vote and thus show your appreciation for our democratic rights. There are still far too many countries in the world where people are not allowed to vote or where the outcome of the election has already been "fixed". So even if you are tired of politicians and think they are all crashing bores (thank you Morrissey), things could easily be a whole lot worse! So please support our democracy and waste 5 of your precious minutes today, to go to the polling station!Before you leave I suggest that you download this wonderful cover version of an old The Jesus and Mary Chain track by The Mary Onettes...wait...it's not a cover you say?

(Snow Downtown Erie, Nov. 6th 2007 - Trisha Neudorff)
The snow began to fall early Tuesday morning and it was a heavy, wet dense snow. Combine that with the fact that most of the trees still had their leaves and we had very strong gusty winds of 30 to 40 mph. All this together put excessive weight and stress on trees and power lines which caused trees and limbs to break and power lines to snap and come down. This left 15,000 homes and business with out power at the peak of the snow event. As of Wednesday evening there are still people without power across the region and crews are continuing to work to get the lights and heat back on.
The total for this snow event was 3.5″ out at the Erie International Airport. Downtown Erie where I live there was 2.5″ at its peak. You go out to Wattsburg and French Creek, NY there was a foot of snow. Summit Twp, in Erie County, had 11″; Edinboro around 4″ and Meadville with 2″.
The winds are expected to become more southe

As indcated by a couple of my past articles, namely, With Friends Like These... and Think We've Got It Bad Here?, I am profoundly glad to be an American. As such, I went with great excitement to the polls this morning to cast my votes for open offices here in the great Commonwealth of Kentucky. I am struck by the contrast; people being bodily beaten and worse for protesting the state of their government on the one hand, and myself and a couple dozen others casting our votes quietly, even cheerfully.Hell, the only awkward moment I experienced at all was noticing that one of the cars in the polling place's lot bore a Bush sticker. This is not to imply that we don't have substantial problems with our country (I wasn't brainwashed after all), we do. In a way, one could posit that the strain of cancer eating away at our cherished liberties is even more deadly than that which has been attacking Pakistan for so long.

Last night I was glued to NBC news on the television and CNN.com on the desktop. I was exhausted and upset with the counts. I went to bed pretty disappointed because Talent was ahead in the polls over McCaskill and Proposition 2 was behind with NOs in the lead. On the bright side of things, the legislation for raising minimum wage was in the lead and favored to pass.
After I woke up this morning, JT encoraged me to check out the election results. After what I saw on the news last night, I was hesistant to look at any final results. I went to Opera, opened CNN.com, scrolled to the U.S. Senate and Missouri election results and I was ecstatic. With results pouring in from St. Louis City, County and other areas, McCaskill took the lead over Talent and was declared the winner.
Also, Propostion 2 was passed… which is something that I wanted, but also a surprise after I saw the figures before bedtime. I pray that stem cell research will lead to finding a cure for my son and all ot
