I don't really care for signs on people's lawns telling me who they are voting for. I don't really understand why people do that. I suppose it's the same reason they put bumper stickers on their cars sharing, not only who they voted for 6 years ago but what school their children attend. I'd be more interested in the stores they shop at. Why don't people put up signs sharing what tv shows they watch or what their favorite color is? There's a teacher at school who likes to paint political rants on his car windows, it'd be way more interesting if teachers all painted about the kids that drove them crazy in class. I'd be looking around for Jessi's name all the time. I guess some people post signs and others just post blogs.
Anyway, I wasn't going to vote today, but I did. I wasn't a very informed voter or that into any of the candidates but there were a few referendums I was interested in--one in particular that supported MATC, the jr. college Erika attends. I was also interested in supporting public transportation. Both mean higher taxes, which I don't really want, but oh, well. Madison had a medical marijuana referendum that I believe passed. This progressive state just voted in a Republican governor and senator. That pendulum likes to swing.
