Rants: Election '04
As I feel it is my duty, I voted today. In all the years I've been eligible to vote, I think I've only missed 2 elections. I think that is a pretty good record. This year was a tough choice. I just needed to go with my gut on it, and hopefully my candidate wins because I'll hate it if the other guy wins.
My new problem is I am officially embarrassed to be from Ohio. Apparently, everyone else in the state thinks that gay marriage is wrong. They also think that we shouldn't recognize unmarried couples. This is plain wrong. As I've mentioned before, I don't think that its any one else's business if two gay people want to get married. I don't see how this affects my marriage.
I'm going to go to sleep and I wonder if there will be a President-elect when I wake up... Last time, I was in Boston and it was stressful hearing it go back and forth. I'll never forget getting on the plane in Cincinnati hearing the election going one way, getting off at Logan hearing it going the other way, then switching several times before I fell asleep. I'm not up for that this time.
