I just struck my blow for Democracy. Check in when you have.
I voted the straight Democratic ticket in early voting in Rowlett, Texas.

There are currently 96,597 registered members at the DU. I therefore expect 96,597 replies to this.

Hell-- SOMETHING has to beat out the Kudzu threads! :rofl:

2. My reply
Edited on Tue Oct-31-06 02:40 PM by Counciltucky
I voted straight Dem via absentee ballot a few weeks ago.

In the races where only a Republican was running, I wrote in someone else.

(Edited the subject line and for specifics)

29. You should have come up our way - I got right in!
Never done the early vote thing before. We just moved up to Stapleton, so I thought I'd give it a go. Worked well.

10. Voted by absentee & sent off the ballot
several days ago to District 40 in CA--straight DEM all the way. Unfortunately, Ed Royce, Repub. incumbent, appears to be a shoe-in for Congress, not to mention Arnie for governor. Voted for Feinstein with considerable reservations. SG

14. I plan on voting on thursday, but I can't find my voter registration card.
I checked the election board website and a valid DL will work. I know that I am currently registered to vote. I just hope I don't get any hassles. I won't stand for it!

19. voted last week, all Democrat
so did my fiance and his dad!! Its funny his dad is so country, ie farming, from Oklahoma, hunting (only what they will eat), cowboy hats, a real cowboy in a sense and he is sooooo liberal!! Hates, hates chimpy in office . He just doesn't look like a liberal, you'd think he was a conservative.
