I Voted Today - And Get This
Tennessee has early voting, so I headed to the local library to do my thang for democracy.

The actual voting was done in a community room. Just outside of the door of the room, on a small reading table, was the book: Profiles in International Terrorism. I shit you not.

2. You Should Have Notified One of the Election Judges
Materials that may influence votes are not allowed within 50 or 100 feet of a polling place.

4. They Probably Put It There
and anyway, it was not overt. It did not have any Bush stickers. It was an actual library book.
