WE VOTED ON 10/25/08
October 27, 2008 | Hampton, Iowa | Vetting explained
My wife Becky had never voted by absentee at the courthouse, so I went with her on Saturday and we both voted ahead of time. Up to this point, she was TOTALLY undecided on who she was voting for, while I voted for Obama. After we got back into the car, she admitted to me that she flipped a coin earlier in the morning and that's who she voted for. She would not tell me who she voted for as she said if she did, people in her family would be disappointed either way. I'm a Democrat, while her other family members are Republican. Being from Iowa, we had our pictures with both McCain and Obama, so no matter who wins....we have our pictures with them! We didn't take a camera to the polls as we didn't know the rules and didn't want to be in violation.
