“Me, four years ago [1]”

I voted today and the experience wasn't the five hour ordeal I've been led to
believe it was. Nope, once it was clear that I lived in the district (oops)
the actual voting process was rather quick. In fact, there were more people
there to monitor the voters than there were voters.

And no touch screens or butterfly ballets this year—just a simple paper
ballet you fed through a machine when finished. The confetti coming out the
other end was a nice touch, I thought.

I also did the right thing and voted for Cynthia McKinney [2], because, you
know, she's going to win [3].
