Go vote. No excuses. Just go.

If you live in North Carolina or Indiana and you haven’t already voted, go do it now. Log off your computer, step away from the Internets, leave work unfinished and go.

Your intentions may be good. You may say, “hey, I’ll do it at lunch.” But then lunch rolls around and your boss comes in and wants more of your energy, so lunch turns into after work. Then maybe you roll up to your polling place after work and there’s a line and you’re like: “Forget this line crap, I have stuff to do at home and my one little vote won’t make a difference anyway.” No. None of that. Unacceptable. Go vote. Now.

Polls are open from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. and so long as you’re in line by 7:30 p.m. you’ll be able to cast a ballot. Click here to find your polling place in North Carolina and here to find it in Indiana.

OK. Now that we got that PSA out of the way, tell me about your voting experience. Was your poll super busy? Were the poll workers happy and sweet or tired and mean? Did you run into any long lost neighbors? Score a hot date? Fill me in.

  2. Got to the polls at 6:40am hoping to beat the crowds… and it worked! Even had time for the “exit survey”. Feels good. Kinda like getting your workout done first thing in the morning. Not that I do that either… but you get my point.

  3. I’m waiting until after work tonight … I’ll probably leave a bit early.

  5. I had so much fun voting! Marc said it’s probably one of my happiest days of the year. I’m about to vlog the experience we had (it wasn’t out of the ordinary… just wanted to share for those who feel timid about going). :)
    cheers to America and to NC!

  6. I voted. In fact, I was the 509th person to vote at my polling station.

  7. My precinct is small, so voting was a breeze. It took about five minutes — and that was just after noon, which is supposed to be one of the busy times. The only bummer: no sticker. :o(

  8. I was really excited, because this was the first time I got to vote!

    Nice to make a difference. :)
