Ride your bike to the Polls
I hope every American Citizen remembers to vote today. I voted at
6:00 a.m. with my family. I didn't ride my bike because the polling place is around the corner from our home. I just hope we have a President when I wake up tomorrow. A repeat of last year will really suck. Peace and Stuff ''Election coverage without results is like pornography without nudity.'' |

Local club here is doing an election day ride -- they're getting together and riding to everybody's polling places. I live two blocks from my polling place, and I'm not free for rides on Tuesday mornings (gotta be up at the college at 11am), so I just walked over early this morning. Looked like a good turnout. Better than 2000, anyway. -km -- Only cowards fight kids -- unidentified Moscow protester http://community.webshots.com/user/blackrosequilts proud to be owned by a yorkie |

Rode my bike about a half mile to the booth at 7am. There was another
cyclist there too and they let us park our bikes inside (a church gym). I suspect we were both Kerry voters. Also, I like to put those (I VOTED) stickers on my helmet; one of them says "YA VOTÉ" -- My bike blog: http://diabloscott.blogspot.com/ |

After stopping at the neighborhood coffeeshop and filling my thermos, I
rode my bike to the poll and completely bypassed the gridlock in the middle school parking lot. I rode right up to the doors, rolled the bike inside, leaned it against the wall in the hallway, waited in line for two hours, voted for W and various other candidates and measures, and got into work at 10:00 a.m. I saw two other commuting cyclists on the road, but I didn't see any other cyclists at the polling location. Saw plenty of Kerry bumper stickers on large SUVs and got *that close* to being right-hooked this morning by a young woman driving a Saab sporting "Defeat Bush" bumpers stickers.

I rode my bike out 5 minutes before poll opening. For all offices, I wrote in "Little Meow". It's a good thing I brought a sharpie, because ball point doesn't write too well on the Diebold screen.

Peace and Stuff ''Election coverage without results is like pornography without nudity.'' I'll be voting after work so it will be dark and I won't be riding the bike. I'm just hoping we don't have too much of a mess at the polls. There will be people challenging votes at some Ohio voting locations today. After a tough day of working on production problems at work I don't want people in my face at the polls tonight! Beverly - who just has a feeling this is going to be worse than the last election |
