Well today is the day (uggg)! Michael and I went and voted this morning. I worked from home so that we could just go together around 10 am, since Michael had to leave for Des Moines right after voting. Luckily the crowds were down so we walked straight in, registered on the spot, and voted.
So the little old election judge man hands me a big scantron ballot with a pen and points me to the little booth. So I (with my Texan self) have to ask where the machines are that we cast our votes. Yeah, he looked at me a bit odd. He repeated the instructions of "just fill in the oval next to the candiate you're voting for". Then afterwards you stick it into this little machine that sucks it up and reads it. Tricky. It is quite intersting to me though that there are so many different ways of voting in all the different states. I mean get with technology people!
So far, things aren't looking too good (results wise). I'm still praying for a miracle - but if the worst happens, I'll just begin praying for the quickest 4 years of my life and that our country survives. :\
