The Time Is Here

Hey y'all, don't forget to vote today! If you have access to a Starbucks you can get a free tall (small) brewed coffee today by telling them you voted. I may do it if there isn't a long line. I like coffee.

Bismarck-Mandan Blog has several good recent posts about the election and various voting issues. His notes mirror my thoughts on the four ballot measures. In fact, it looks like I agree with pretty much everything he wrote on those posts.

So, get out and cast your ballot if you haven't already done so. All elections are important but I think this one carries some extra weight on the scale of significance.

My opinion? My gut feeling is the presidential election is going to lean more toward a landslide, and in the opposite way the media is portraying. Who knows - I have been wrong once or twice before. Other than voting and praying, all we can do is wait and see. It'll be interesting to see how the race between Earl Pomeroy (Democrat incumbent) and Duane Sand for our U.S. House seat ends up. I think that will be a fairly close one -- at least closer than the last time they ran against each other.
