I'm registered, still, to vote in Ohio. I sent off my application for an absentee ballot about two weeks ago; I haven't gotten it yet, but am unworried, since this doesn't seem like an unreasonable processing time.
However, today I did get election materials in the mail! I received the Ohio GOP leadership team, Republican Slate (they are ready to fight for me), as well as Steve Stivers's campaign flyer, which informs me, among other things, that he is interested in keeping America's borders strong ("those seeking citizenship must learn the English language"). Please remember that this is Ohio. We do not really share a border with Mexico, but perhaps Steve is really concerned about those illegal immigrants from Canada (who would still have to swim across a Great Lake to get to Ohio).
...I have nothing to add.

And dude, I love that icon. =D
*and can't believe she used the phrase 'red tide'... sounds disgusting. well, it is, but - you know.* =P

Date: 2008-10-08 12:53 am (UTC)Good luck with your absentee ballot--I hope it arrives soon! (This election has been way too nerve-wracking for everyone already; I was about to tear the house apart last night when I thought I'd lost my registration card.)

Date: 2008-10-20 06:54 pm (UTC)Do you know the deadline on absentee voting in Ohio?
I did a commercial job near Lancaster Pa this week, and I saw hundreds of McCain signs, and one Obama sign. I'm very worried.
