A vote for democracy…or free food…

I voted this morning. I was in and out in ten minutes. That included the two minutes I spent standing in the wrong line. There was an electronic booth open so I did that. It was kind of a mistake because I really only vote for president and a few others and when you do the electronic one you have to skip through every screen and then it shows you all your answers on the screen to verify and then it prints a copy and shows you it again to verify. Next time I will just mark a box old school style and be done with it.

Then I took my voter sticker and headed to Starbucks to get a free tall coffee. If you show them your sticker they will give you a free coffee. So if the democratic process means nothing to you, at least get some free caffeine.

For the record, I was in line behind way more people at the Starbucks than I was at the voting place.

Ah, democracy in action 🙂

Then later, Jeff told me I can go to Krispy Kreme and get a free donut. So I did that 🙂

But they gave me a plain donut and not the advertised sparkly star patriotic ones. I bet if Barack Obama was president he wouldn’t stand for such injustices…

Between 5pm and 8pm Ben and Jerry’s is also giving out free ice cream…maybe I’ll see if there’s one of those on the way to Joelina’s…

Ah, truly a vote for democracy…and free food…
