Did you rock the vote today?

Anyone else remember that slogan?

Rock the Vote

Like most of the teenagers of my generation, I was addicted to MTV. The year I turned 18 it also happened to be an election year, I must have heard and seen that slogan on MTV a hundred million times!

I'll tell you what, though, it worked. I was excited to get out there and exercise my voting right!

I was ROCKING it!

I'm proud to say, I did get out there and rocked my vote today.

Speaking of the vote...

Anyone else out there watching the ABC news coverage of this? What's up with all the commercials?! Holy crap... It's like cycles of 30 seconds speculation, 6 commercials. And, where did they come up with some of these people?

 I remember that and voted then and now.

I'm glad you got out there to vote. We should all be doing our civic duty.

 You're kind of right .I still have a hard time with the two party system and since they are both so corrupt. I don't want people to know that I voted!
Using more than all the road!

 Lowest common denominator. I would have voted if I could and it would have been for the only sensible choice. Idiots.

Oh and I don't remember "Rock the Vote". I do remember "vote or die" which seemed a little extreme

Omg-totally forgot about that one. Lol

 Vote is pretty much rocked - and our dear friends to the north did not see this coming. How do I know? Americans crashed the site with info about how to emigrate to Canada. I guess a lot of people will soon understand refugee status???? Dear Canada - see you soon! Love, Many Americans

That's a very drastic step!

 I rocked the vote today.

National results are not inspiring, but some local races are also real nail-biters. Better than watching sports, but not as much fun.
Read my diary Journal of a Taxi Driver for taxi stories and pictures of flowers and trees.

There were a few local races here, too, that had me intrigued. Lots of local mud slinging!

 Not watching any coverage . . . can't STAND the media saying the same things over & over & over & over & OVER again . . . Since I'm old, voted early . . . am proud to say I've voted in every election since 1971!!!

Hugs if ya want 'em

ps: Just read your response to dayzeeme . . . they always pay a lot of attention to us here in The Mitten . . . we're a 'swing state' . . . with a really defined demographic split


secret_lade replies on 11/8/2016 8:26 pm:
Really, I had no idea. I hardly ever watch the news, way too depressing.

 I am sitting here in Canada totally appalled by what I am seeing so far ... Lord help us all. PLEASE let the polls start changing to more Hilary soon ...

It is way, way closer than I ever expected it could be. I'm surprised to see there is so much attention being paid to Michigan right now.
