Today is a very short day for me at work as it is election day. I'm taking the majority of the day off to poll watch for my party, and I'm sure it is going to be a rip roaring good time. Things have been really ugly around here the past two months, and the ugliness heated up over the weekend with one candidate electing to sue another candidate for libel. The community I live in has been angry for too long, and I am ready for it to stop.

As a voter I've never felt so wanted in my entire life. Over the weekend I received ten pieces of campaign literature and a visit from an actual person. That never happens. Candidates rarely send information to us in the LG and we never get a drop by visit. Not that it was a welcomed or pleasant visit. I was reading my book for tomorrow night's class when someone pounded on my door. Not knocked, pounded. I thought it might be Jason screwing with me, so I half expected someone to shout out, "Police! Open up!" Imagine my surprise when a handful of campaign literature was shoved under my door. The person didn't even wait for me to answer it. I guess they had too many other doors to beat the crap out of.

On a side note, the library is once again asking for a tax increase. I have absolutely no idea what is going to happen, but I will post the results to my blog as soon as I know what they are.
