Register to Vote!

I've made it clear who I'm voting for. I'm not comfortable telling people who they should vote for though I'll share information if someone asks. I think that the vote is something that is deeply personal and something that was fought for by differnt groups of people throughout this nation's history, and should be treated as such.

What I will tell everyone to do is register to vote and then get your ass to the polls (or sending a ballot or vote early depending on your state)

For California you can go here and here is a Google search for different states to see if you're already registered. Remember that you have to re-register if you move even if it's within the same town. Also it's a good idea for everyone to verify before election day as things get messed up (some say intentionally but that hasn't been proven, things do happen accidentally also) and some people aren't allowed to vote due to clerical errors. This happened to my brother in 06 and the first he knew about the problem was when he was trying to vote.

So I strongly encourage everyone to register, and if you think you're registered to double check. I don't care if you write in Mickey Mouse, go to the polls and vote. Too many people have worked too hard for this right for us to not take advantage of it.
