Yes, I Did

I voted today :)

On my drive to my polling place this morning, I was literally overcome with emotion as I saw a woman on the side of the street outside of a polling place holding a "No on 8" poster. I was so proud of her. She is out there in the last hours trying to educate as many people as she could about this hate filled proposition. I can only hope and pray that people vote this hateful prop down. It would be such a disaster if it would pass. Read WeezerMonkey's entry on this hateful prop, your eyes will be opened.

After my 30-minute wait, I stepped up to the little kiosk, punched a few dots, and got my sticker :) I am so not a political person, but this is such an important election.

I feel good about the candidate I voted for, and I feel good about the direction that I am hoping this country is heading with a new President. I voted for hope and change for the future of this country. Whoever should win the election tonight, I pray for his strength and courage, to get our country out of this mess.

I stopped on the way home for a free coffee at Starbucks, of course :)
