Ohioans and Texans: VOTE TODAY!

Even though it’s been awhile since I’ve been home, I’m pretty sure that everyone back there has been inundated with election propaganda over the past few months. The US election has its own special coverage on CNN International which has helped me keep up to date (along with reading the International Herald Tribune, checking various websites and watching Saturday Night Live – okay, that last one is a bit of a joke).

Anyway, in case someone out there reading this has been under a rock, today is the day Ohio! Go vote in the primaries! Vote Obama! Or at least vote for someone... The democratic process only works if we take part in it. A reminder: you are legally allowed to vote if you are in line at your polling location before 7:30pm, even if you can’t get inside by then. If anyone tries to turn you away they are violating your rights.

vote! VOTE! VOTE!
