Not that I need a reminder -- I'm a voter and I vote (ha ha -- get it?) But my confindece was a bit shaken yesterday. Let me explain. . .
We have a mailman -- now known as postal carrier or something (let's all be pc -- I know!), but we really have the old fashioned, friendly, *always* on time mailman! He walks his route through rain and storm (and what's that saying? well, anyway -- you get the idea.) So yesterday I went out to get the mail at the usual time and it wasn't there. Oh! I think to myself, it's Veteran's Day! Which it was *not*. Pete brought the mail in when he got home from work and said something about me not bringing in the mail and I mentioned the whole Veteran's Day thing and then I added -- So do we vote tomorrow?
Apparently, we do.
I voted! We do mail-in/drop-off ballots in Oregon so mine went in last week to avoid forgetting it. I voted to try and take back our country. Now we just sit and wait. Ballots aren't due to the drop boxes until 8am tomorrow, so Oregon has to wait a little longer than most states.

In the interest of fairness, I encourage all Republicans to vote, too--not just Democrats. Though if GOP voters would be kind enough to turn out in slightly lower numbers than the Dems, I'd really appreciate it.
