I'll bet voting never felt so good.

I'm in California and I feel like I've been waiting forever! But my day is coming.

But it's already sealed in the privacy envelope then sealed in the outer envelope then signed on the back. ..Don't forget to sign that envelope Oregonites and put a stamp. I put two.

I just spent most of the day at the county convention, waiting for alternates to be sifted into their seats, and thinking how my Republican neighbors get to do like you: color in a square and drop their ballot in a mailbox.

I am happy when anyone votes, even if that vote differs from mine. I voted for Bernie in CT on 4/26, but just saying.
