10 things to love about Election Day

Postby kirtsjc » Tue Nov 07, 2006 10:18 am

Today is not only the day to exercise your right as a citizen. This is also the day to celebrate and have FUN! *

Here are 10 things we love about Election Day:

10 Joking around with the poll workers about bribes.

9 Leaving a box of crayons in the voting booth, with instructions on how to use them on the touch-screen voting machine.

8 After all those slimy TV political ads, looking forward to your favorite hygene, used car and screaming announcer type commercials.

7 Sleeping till 10, going out to eat pancakes, then telling your boss: "I'm late because there were long lines at my precinct."

6 Writing in your best friend's name on a ballot in hopes of getting them back on some sort of "reality" TV show.

5 Nothing says "party" like beer, pickle juice, nachos with chili dip and watching election returns on HDTV.

4 Voing YES on the constitutional amendment that will end all stories about Madonna adopting a Third World child.

3 Winning a bet that you can eat your favorite regional food while voting.

2 Hearing that the most prominant crooked politician in your area will soon be leaving office to work for the very people that didn't "corrupt" him/her.

And the number one thing to love about Election Day:

1 Showing the rest of the world what a privilege it is to live in a democracy; or least participting in the "best elections results money can buy."

At the very least the signs are kindling to get those fires started. At least they would get some positive attention. :lol:
