I voted a week ago via absentee....I honestly don't understand the huge lines in Florida. All you have to do to vote absentee is to call and request a ballot.

Of course I got mocked several times by the elections official from being a Republican teacher....He compared me to KKK....Lets just say I had a nice chat with his supervisor...

OMG, that is so uncalled for! How stupid. IDKW, but that reminds me of the British guy who told me 9/11 was just Americans getting what they deserved. I just had a HUGE flashback.

For a lot of people, part of voting is the experience of actually being at your polling place, pulling the lever, and getting that little "I Voted" sticker. Some people are willing to wait in line for that, and if that's what they want to do, so be it. I voted absentee in Florida, and it's just not the same. I feel like there's something I'm forgetting to do today.
