Today is Super Tuesday in California. Typically we always vote first thing in the morning. (I love to proudly wear and display my "I Voted" sticker. I have to make sure I get one before they run out!) Today, though, we are going to the polls at lunch time because I still need to do some research on several of the candidates. Can’t believe how ill prepared I am for this elections cycle! And do you know what I’ve been doing at my job for the last month? Urging people to be informed voters! Ugh. Makes me sick. But I will be an informed voter today - just not an informed morning voter.
You’ve all read about how one vote can make a difference, I’m sure. But here it is again - just as a reminder to us all that voting is a precious privilege and serious duty. We must vote in order to ensure the preservation of our liberties.
