Regardless of your views, whether they are Republican, Democratic, Libertarian, Independent, etc....I just wanted to say thank you for voting.
I went to the polls at 6am this morning and the lines were out the door and through most of the parking lot. It warmed my heart.

I did early voting in Florida last week. It was good to stand in line with everyone. If you don't know, nuts roll down hill, so they all end up in Florida. There were folks from everywhere and every ethnic persuasion. It gave me a great sense of community. It made me feel good to vote for a Puerto Rican with a thick Spanish accent for city council. The most important votes to me were the state and local amendments and referendums.

I'm curious. Why do you affiliate yourself with a particular Party, especially with being a Democrat or Republican?
