Civic Duty: Done! by tgirsch

I voted today. (So did Kevin — I know, because I saw him there.) It took about an hour. So if something dramatic happens between now and Nov. 4, I’ll have to hope that the electors do their constitutionally-envisioned duty.

Not surprisingly, I voted more or less straight-ticket Democrat. This doesn’t matter much, because for president and senate, the Republican will almost certainly win overwhelmingly in Tennessee, whereas for the local offices, the Democrat is equally assured of victory. One exception to the party-line voting: there was one office where the incumbent (a Democrat) was running unopposed. I refuse to vote for anyone who’s running unopposed, so for that office, I wrote in Kevin. I’m sure he won’t mind.
