The only wasted vote is the one that is never cast.

Regardless of what side of the aisle you think you sit on, where you think life begins, if you smoke or don't smoke... Get to the polls. The only wasted vote is the one that is never cast. Update: The turnout seems very heavy today. I voted at my precinct on the St. Theresa's campus at 57th & Main. At 10AM there was about a 15 minute wait. Not too bad. I used the electronic voting booth with no problems other than I didn't realize you have to keep hitting "Print Next" to print out every page of your ballot. I left the precinct only to encounter one of my opponent's volunteers(?) gathering signatures for his nominating petition. Nothing like in my face campaigning. Ouch!
