I'm nervous because the most common reason of heard of why people support either bush or kerry is because they are the lesser of two evils.

I'm a wreck. AND I have campaign fatigue like never before.
Someone wake me up on December 1st, when we have a winner.

Ditto to ADqtPiMel.
I'm nervous. Nervous that if Bush wins, I will not have job. See, I worked hard put myself through undergrad and now grad. I'm literate, and never drank a 40 in my life.
But I decided to enter the envrionmental field. And I won't sell my soul to anyone(republicans/oil companies/etc) and say things like: If we open the forests to be selectively cut, then there won't be as many forest fires. Bush doesn't like the envrionment very much; in fact, they got rid of it in Texas.

I am very nervous. And nervous that I'll end up in a fight with someone.
During the 2000 elections on campus some girl who obviously didn't bath or comb her hair got up in my face and told me I was going to hell if I voted for George Bush and called me a rich bitch. So I threw my fountain coke on her.
I'm carrying a water gun to class tomorrow. Yes I"m very grown up about situations like this.

Wow! I don't know if I should be shocked or laugh. I am so glad this kind of stuff doesn't happen to me. Try to stay away from this dirty girl. Actually, she should stay away from you and your coke.

Dems will never get it. They will be sitting at home drinking 40's. There are only so many government jobs for Kerry to give out to the illiterate.

I'm not nervous, because the American people won't let an asshat like him be right.

well, i will admit that i am a little nervous.....from the stand-point that there will be an over-flow of ppl who listen to what ben affleck, p. diddy, or dave matthews are saying/who they are voting for without really figuring out what is going on and what they REALLY agree with. that makes me nervous.....
i like to think the basis of both parties are good and have positive intentions.....but both parties like to play up the negative aspects and stereotypes. republicans being old rich white guys with nothing to do but run away from taxes, and democrats being some uneducated crack head living off the people's tax money. yes, some repubs are old rich white guys, but some are not. and yes, some dems are uneducated crack heads.....but i'm a repub and am neither old, rich, or a male.....and GP up there is neither uneducated or a crack head (that we can prove, anyway  ). i think that W is still the man this country needs b/c we know he will defend this country, he will fight back, and he won't back down to haters. kerry....well, we know his wife has money and that his running mate is a cutie......that's about it.
prayin hard tonite that W wins.

Probably the most truthful fact out of this entire election.
Nervous?
Let me tell you what I am nervous about : not getting to the polls early enough where I am either a) late for work or b) don't get to vote at all.
And yeah... I waited til the last minute to research all the crazy Cali measures and propositions. I only know how I am voting on two of them so far...perhaps that's all they'll get.
I feel like I am cramming for a major exam.

400 polls
I heard today that there have been about 400 polls concerning this election (the most ever by far), and all of them have reported that the two candidates are nearly tied (and within the margin of error - what ever that is).
Even if Kerry wins, the Republicans will control the House and Senate, so none of Kerry's liberal judges will be approved.
In GA, there is almost no close race to worry about.

A long way
Slate's Robert Wright sums up the attitude, saying of Kerry:
"He's a long way from being the Messiah, but at least he's not the anti-Christ."

I agree.
I'm not knowledgable in that court-area... but was 2000 the first time that has ever happened?
I think it will happen again b/c there is so much more happening now then there was 4 years ago...

There have been extremely long lines at the voting polls in New York. My boyfriend voted at 6:30 AM and there was a line, but it moved quickly. I will go vote later this afternoon.
