Get Thee to the Primary

Posted on May 11, 2004 at 6:51 AM in Uncategorized

Primary elections are today in Lincoln — so, local friends, GO VOTE!

I’m supporting Jeff Fortenberry for the House of Representatives, District 1. For a sample ballot, look here.

Polls are open from 8am-8pm. Questions about where you can vote are answered here.

Come on, friends I know and love… Vote. Take a few minutes before work, during lunch or at the end of the workday to earn that “I Voted” sticker. I know it’s just the primaries and it doesn’t seem very important. But trust me, if you care at all about your future you need to vote. Voter turnout is expected to be 28% today… blah. Let’s do better than that.

    OR, if you don’t vote today, make sure to get registered for the final election in november…

    I find it verrry amusing that you even included a link to sample ballots. For the record, I did vote this morning…I’ve made it to each one since I was eligible to start voting. Plus, they give both me AND Torrin a sticker–how many three year olds do you know who voted? :) I have had very little luck trying to convince my non-voting friends to conform…I hope your luck is better than mine!

    i guess it is kinda funny that i included that link… i just hate to be unprepared! there’s nothing like voting for someone you know nothing about.

    torrin deserves a sticker — he’s a cute little guy. : )
