Oct 2012

I'll be joining you today. Got a visit from a nice young man knocking doors and handing out Vote Early door hangers. President Obama's smiling face on the front and all the local voting locations on the back.

I don't care how long the line is - but I'm weird. I enjoy standing in Queues and people watching. I don't mind traffic either, lol.

I've seen a few TV ads for voting no on one of the amendments - i forget which one because I was gonna vote no anyway but the point is at least we are spending some money to let people know the truth.

Me, my wife and daughter will be doing our part to keep Orange County blue!
