I'm so ashamed...

I only voted once in today's elections.

I know that some people are so full of patriotic zeal that they go and vote two, three, sometimes four times. And others believe so much in civic duty that they even vote after they've been dead. For years.

I, on the other hand, didn't even think of going back and voting again until just now. And since the polls close in 20 minutes, I probably couldn't get there in time anyways. (I'm really slow at putting on my shoes and jacket...)

I am such a failure at being a citizen.

You sound like you'd like to be a Washington State voter. Here in Washington, Espresso stands won't allow you to buy coffee if you don't vote numerous times. You're not allowed to go to Mariners games, or carry an umbrella, if you don't cast more than one ballot. However, if you're a dead imprisoned felon, you can vote as many times as you'd like. And, if you vote liberal, they'll buy you some smack. It's a pretty nice deal they've got going on out here.

There were no elections in my area today. Polls where all closed.
