Then you are ready to ruuuummmmmmmmmble! Get thee to your polling place, cast your ballot, and collect your nice little "I voted!" sticker.

Call me corny, but I always find voting to be a moving event. I mean, it takes almost no effort to participate -- I walk around the corner to my polling place and do my business. But as I wait in line for my turn, I always think about the fact that so many people in the world do not have this sort of right to participate in their government, which makes me feel rather humbled and lucky. And kind of like an asshole because I take it for granted almost every other day of the year.
