Okay, so I procrastinated... and tomorrow's the last day to send in my absentee ballot thingy
should I A) risk missing class and vote during my dinner break next Tuesday, or should I B) risk not getting my ballot through the system in time?

... with the importance of this election, I'm leaning towards A. Besides, my night class teacher is pretty cool, I'm sure he wouldn't have a problem with it.

4. Yeah, the first election I was old enough to vote in was 2000...
and the paperwork for my registration got screwed up. :banghead:

Of course, I lived in Florida at the time. So odds are good that my vote wouldn't have been counted anyway... :P

I'm sure if you explained it to your professor, he'd understand. If not, well fuck him. And not in the good way. :D

7. Apparently not here unfortunately.
I did that for 2004, but that was when I lived in FL. :(

Back in 2006 I was working the night shift and living a complete 12 hour shifted schedule from the rest of the world, and my roommate (The Animator here on DU) was working the early day shift but he didn't have to work that day, so we got to the polls before they opened at 6 am. :P Then I went home, had dinner, and went to bed.
