Day 291 - I Voted!
Saturday, October 18, 2008
Since I typically work the polls or at the Republican HQ on Election Day, I decided to head to the Courthouse to vote today. I've always taken the kids with me as a civics lesson. We discuss the importance of voting, the issues, and why we vote the way we do. Rachael is used to this. She's been going to political rallies, watching debates, staying up all night for election tallies, etc. ever since she can remember. However, this is Nick's first foray into my political obsession! He talked with the two elderly gentlemen who were handing out the ballots, he proudly announced (LOUDLY!) that, "I'm voting for John McCain. He's a Democrat!" Oh well, I guess he at least knew "A" candidate and "A" political party - even if the two weren't exactly a match! Maybe the concept of a "secret" ballot might be the next area to discuss!
