Election Day

My brother and I just got back from casting our votes. My daughter just called me from East Texas and said she and my Granddaughter just voted. It was my Granddaughter's first election. Yay. My son and his wife will be voting when they get off work. That's six of the seven eligible voters in my family. I don't know about my Grandson because he is in the Navy, stationed in Virginia.

I think we have done our part. If Texas continues to be governed by a bunch of lunatics, don't blame us.

Thank you.

I'm working a split shift today just so I could vote. I have to go back to work this evening.

not my fault either. And the third-way dems on this website can kiss my ass.

Yes, Green or nothing if there wasn't a Dem. Case in point, Jeb Hensarling had only a Libertarian challenger. Yuck. So much for choice.

My brother has not registered, but he probably would have voted for Republicans so I wasn't going to risk getting him made at me.
