Luckily I signed up for absentee balloting and voted a few weeks ago!</p> http://laist.com/2007/03/08/life_on_the_ecampaign_trail_why_didnt_you_vote.php#comment-1028649 http://laist.com/2007/03/08/life_on_the_ecampaign_trail_why_didnt_you_vote.php#comment-1028649 Comments Thu, 08 Mar 2007 14:05:56 -0800 <p>I drove to my new polling place,a teacher's lounge at an elementary school in my district. Got there at 7 pm and there wasn't a soul around except the janitor. The polls are supposed to close at 8 pm. Hey, I tried to vote! </p> http://laist.com/2007/03/08/life_on_the_ecampaign_trail_why_didnt_you_vote.php#comment-1028593 http://laist.com/2007/03/08/life_on_the_ecampaign_trail_why_didnt_you_vote.php#comment-1028593 Comments Thu, 08 Mar 2007 13:12:15 -0800 <p>In my leeeeeengthy voting life, I have only missed casting a ballot twice. The first was in the later/mid 1990s and primarily featured school board and community college trustee candidates for the area I lived in at the time. The second was last Tuesday with a slate similar to the first. I have no excuse to admit, only shame.</p>
