...I hope you all got out to vote today, and that you got proper confirmation of your votes.

Feel free to consider this a political "open mike" post.

Yes, I voted; no, I didn't get proper confirmation. I emailed the main contenders -- even the people I didn't vote for -- and asked them to make accountable balloting a priority, should they win.

I got personal responses back from several candidates. Made me feel pretty good about who I voted for...and believe me, I'm keeping these emails for future use should nothing change between now and '08.

Very Good Idea, that.

Done and done. None of the races that I could vote for were close, but I still felt good about doing it. Our voting machines (not Diebold!) have a sort of receipt-roll-thingy that doesn't actually give you the receipt, but you can see it as it scrolls onto the takeup reel. I listened closely to make sure that it wasn't going directly into a little shredder. ;)

Glad to hear about that last point!
