Election Thoughts
- I voted here in Honolulu at about 5:30 p.m. The weird thing is that the election had already been decided because of the time difference. I felt a little silly voting when the race was already over, but I guess it's the act of voting that counts (there were also some interesting referendums here)
- Hawaii's voting ballot sucks - it wasn't electronic or even punch-hole. We had to fill in a box with a pen(like on the SAT's, but the box was about three times as big as the little circles)
- Sarah Palin was a mistake - at first, I thought she was an interesting choice...then she opened her mouth. She said the word "maverick" every 10 seconds, she ended her sentences with "ya," and she was generally annoying.
- Obama's going to have a rough presidency because of all the problems we have right now. He'll need to have a strong cabinet.
- On a personal note, my wife voted for the first time since getting American citizenship!!!
How was your election experience?

did you get a sticker saying you voted, it's one of my fave. i was one of the first 500+ people to wait in line in the morning with wait time of over 2 hours for the east coast. but i proudly wore my sticker everywhere that day =).
