Me too. My wife and I took both kids to the polls - Franny sat with me, while Melissa and Drew were right next to us.
I ended up voting mostly Democrat, with the exception of John Carter for Congress (you have no idea how giddy with joy I am that I no longer have Lamar Smith as my rep). There were a large number of local positions with only one candidate listed, so in those instances I either didn't fill in the bubble at all (if I wasn't up to speed on the candidate's positions or strongly disagreed with them) or, if I agreed with the candidate in some degree, filled it in. Maybe I'll run for one of those uncontested positions next time. Heh. A friend of ours was running for state representative - he's running as a Democrat in Williamson County, so the odds are he's going to get hammered, but he's running a very centrist campaign, and is in addition a very civic-minded and rational person, so I'm hoping he's got a chance. I spent a lot of time dithering about Sanchez and Perry for governor - they've both been running pretty sleazy campaigns, but after I read up on the Libertarian and Green candidates' positions, I didn't much care for either of them. Ultimately, I voted for Sanchez simply because his ads were slightly less sleazy than Perry's. I do have one question for John: Who was the Green candidate you voted for, and why? I, like many here, am extremely curious about that. Adam C. Lipscomb [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
