I early voted today. Great feeling.

Sure nice to take advantage of early voting and beat the crowd. I didn't realize, or had forgotten, that there was the referendum question on a constitutional amendment to restrict political campaign contributions to real people only, and not corporations, etc. Nice to be able to express my vote on that. We really need all the Democrats to carry Wisconsin this year.

....local and state offices in my district. We don't even have a candidate running for State Representative; lots of judges also - only one Democrat on the Appeals seats running. I ended up voting for the Green Candidates if not Dems on ballot. So, voted either Democrat or Green, no Libertarians, although quite a few on the ballot. This is a VIVID RED area.
