Nothing fancy. No charts. Just a place for us to note we’ve done our civic duty. Well, one of our civic duties. The other one is jury duty, but you can normally get out of that if you show up at the courthouse in a kilt with no underwear and sockless loafers. For good or for bad, your apparel will have no bearing on you casting your ballot this election. Even wearing a suspender-barrel or a suit of armor won’t disenfranchise you.

I live in South Carolina, so my vote won’t count for much of anything, and yet I now proudly have an “I Voted” sticker on my jacket. I beat the lines this morning. My father has now voted as well and reports that the poll workers are seeing heavy traffic, with more votes cast as of 10 this morning than they typically see over the course of the whole day. We both vote in a Clemson precinct, so this may just be us and the rest of the Socialist Shock Brigade flinging ourselves valiantly against the Republican armored column that typically grinds its way through elections here. Unfortunately, I purchased and watched all of Dexter Season 6 yesterday, so I have nothing to occupy myself until results start coming in this evening. Do your very best, therefore, to keep me entertained this afternoon!!
