Voting

So I did my civic duty yesterday and went and voted. Now I have been voting in the same place the past 3 times so I know where I need to go. I also understand they have people in the polling places to help move things along and what not but why are they so intense? Someone was talking on the cell phone behind me maybe 5-6 people back and the girl not only yelled across the lunchroom – which is where it was being held at an elementary school – but ran over to the guy and kept saying over and over again turn it off or leave the building. Then the 2 people in front of me and the 2 people behind me, who by the way bad breath, were arguing about how McCain had a bad choice in the vice presidency and should have picked Rice and how Obama this and that, blah blah blah. Obviously they were voting for McCain but knew Obama would win. Smart people but why did I have to get put in the middle of that. Then someone brought in there 2 small children who screamed bloody murder the entire time until they left. Ugh

    Hahaha It was really funny to read about those two persons â??who by the way bad breathâ??! I think that if you hated them because of what they were talking about, you hated even more for that bad breath! I know this is a serious thing but just as you said, some people took this so very personal, they would kill in the name of Obama or McCain!! But that was not only in the US, but all around the globe, this is really amazing how the world was watching American Elections.Regards!
