I Voted!

[tanaqui]

Use this post to tell us you voted -- whether today, in early voting or by mail -- and what it was like.

Was it busy when you voted? Did you have any nice encounters and conversations when you went to vote? See any good or unexpected signs? Or any cute dogs? (Cute dogs at polling stations are a bit of a tradition in the UK -- I don't know if it's the same in the US!)

Did you persuade any friends, family or co-workers to go and vote?

Oh, and have a sticker.

I mailed in my ballot in mid-October or so, since I'm currently living outside the US, and have been intermittently posting on fb in hopes of convincing/reminding friends who weren't already having similar convos to vote. My sister and I also tag-teamed our parents: she talked to my mom over the weekend about voting even if they don't necessarily feel like citizens, and I sent them a "happy voting day" text today as an extra poke. (My dad replied to say he'd voted already, so there's a good chance my mom went along too.)

Good work on spreading the message to friends and tag-teaming your parents!
