I went to sign up to get an absentee ballot today. Instead, I ended up voting. I was a bit surprised, but I decided to go for it. There was one part I had to leave blank, because it was about whether certain judges should keep their positions -- and I hadn't heard of any of them. So that made me feel like an uniformed citizen. But I did vote for president and senator and such. Woohoo. Now that's all been taken care of, and now I wait to see what happens.
