My first diary and what an honor. I have enjoyed the writings of all the other "Kossacks" for one time, helping me through these last 8 years. Now that we are on the brink of bringing about real change in our political system, I just knew I had to share my joy at casting a vote today for Barack and Joe here in Medina, OH as part of the early vote/registration effort.
There are only a couple days left this week to do this , so I encourage everyone in Ohio to vote. It took me all about 10 minutes to fill out the forms and shade in the ballot. It was sooo easy and it felt good dropping the ballot into the black box.
One thing that did strike me that Obama/Biden selection is about halfway down the presidential category, with "they who should not be named" at the top of the ballot. Being we have a Democratic Sec. of State, I was hoping for some better priority. Not that I think it will matter, but every little bit helps in Ohio.
By the way, I got me yard sign yesterday!! Woo-hoo- now evryone get out there and Barack the Vote.
