True to my socialist values, I'm sitting this one out in order to give Republicans a fighting chance. They haven't had much to cheer about on election days lately.

Will stop on the way home to vote in the city elections. The people who are running it now have the place firmly in the black and I would like it to stay that way. Hard to argue with their fiscal policy so I am going incumbent across the board.

I'm not sure there are elections today in my district. I could have checked I suppose, but I just got back from a month overseas last week.....Didn't have any time to do research, and I figure any election would have likely been for some meaningless office or ballot initiative.
Not worth it. Maybe 2010

Not yet. I plan on voting for the tyrant Verg Bernero and the bootlicking incumbents on the City Council later today.

Already voted and, believe it or not, I voted for a Republican at the top of the ticket, although not on the Republican line. Bloomberg is also running on the Independent line, and that's where I pulled the lever.
Democratically yours,

How do I find that out... smells like a good rationale to leave work early.

Crap... just found out I can choose 4 peeps for the council (3, 4 year terms and 1, 2 year term out of 8 people... none of whom I have ever heard of.) I think the boss should just let me leave work now to avoid the rush at the polls.

The line will probably rival the one where I vote at.

Down by the stadium can be shady no doubt. That is South Fulton. The interesting thing about Fulton County is it's VERY long. I would guess Turner Field is about 20 miles from me. Fulton County north of downtown is very nice actually.

I voted today.
Voted against the School Board incumbent and voted for the dude running for mayor who was at the polling place because he asked for my vote and shook my hand. I have no idea what party he's in but I know he's the challenger.
Oh btw:
