I Love the Process

I might grumble and complain about political campaigning, mudslinging and partisanship but when election night rolls around, I can’t help it, I grin like a fool. I don’t care much for outward signs of patriotism, I don’t need to show off to anyone how I feel about my country, but come election day, I wear red, white & blue. I enjoy this day more than the 4th of July.

I love the process. I love that we can just march down to our polling place, tick a box and have our say. (Or in my case, mail off a ballot a month ago…) The Americans have spoken today! Loudly!

And I’m especially proud to say I made it through the entire campaign without seeing ONE presidential campaign commercial!!
