Voted about an hour ago in Virginia, which this year is a swing state. Hasn't voted democrat since 64, but this'll be the year I'm sure of it.
This is the first time I've gone voting in my locality and seen something other than cranky old white people in line. I've seen other twenty somethings and minorities actually voting this time.... in the past the youngest people I would see were late 30's at minimum.
And I live in the solid red areas of VA! So this fills me with hope :)
If you haven't voted, get out there and vote. Whether Repub or Democrat or Indepedent, just make sure you feel like you're voting for the best man for the job and make that vote happen. No excuses!
