The Deed is Done

Thanks to the wisdom of our political heroes the voters of Texas are allowed to vote early for all elections. I went today and performed my civic duty and cast my votes for the November 4th election. I don't think I have actually voted on election day since they instituted early voting. The process in small town Texas is actually pretty efficient. As we live approximately 20 years behind the rest of the world most of the folks don't trust electronic voting. The tax office has one electronic voting machine which gathers dust most of the time. I always use it because it is faster than the paper ballots and I enjoy the weird looks I get when I am using it.

As to how I voted that is pretty obvious if you have read any of my previous posts. Pretty much for the Republicans, except if Jimmy Joe is running for JP as a Democrat I might cross over. This being a county where hardly anyone runs as a Republican those that do tend to be a little hinky. I do have a county commissioner friend that is a Republican running for re-election. I voted for Tom but am afraid that his party affiliation may be his undoing. Nonetheless, I am done and the knuckleheads can call all they want and it doesn't do them any good!

The more important point is how everyone else votes. If you believe the polls Obama should win easily. I don't believe them! I think it will be somewhat of a replay of the 2000 election, spiced up by some rioting and looting if Obama does not win. Hell, we might have rioting and looting if he DOES win! The press is building the Dems up for a victory and they will be so disappointed if they do not win. We might even have a replay of the Supremes.

I have three children, two will probably vote for Obama, the other will not vote. So my wife and I will cancel their votes out. Such is life!
