We VOTED this morning. It was every bit as cathartic as you might imagine.

We are in a relatively small town, and the registrar's office pulled a thoroughly unexpected move in light of the pandemic and has been holding EARLY voting. Today was the last day. Took less than an hour. A line...not a GIANT one...when we got there that moved quickly. In, out, F.U.D.J.T., glory hallelujah.

IF you have ALREADY voted, you KNOW what I'm talking about, you know HOW GOOD it felt.

If you haven't, you don't...don't even pretend that you can imagine how GOOD it felt...but you WILL know if you're planning to vote TOMORROW.

I'm not kidding, I've been counting this down, I KNEW it would feel great, NO idea as to the MAGNITUDE of the GREATNESS. And I can't wait for YOU to feel as good as I do RIGHT NOW.

2. Felt amazing to vote this year for me as well.

And I live in an extremely blue neighborhood, in a very blue city, in a very blue county, in a very blue state.

3. I voted a couple of weeks ago

And man, the level of pride I felt waiting in that long line (this was when Minneapolis only had one early voting location open), getting my ballot, filling it out, and handing it in was incredible.
I've always felt a sense of pride when I voted before, but this year feels different, it feels more important. I feel really really good about it.

4. It was the most important thing I have ever done.

Especially since I am in a "Battleground" state (Arizona)

5. I voted by mail. It was anticathartic.

I had no choice, health problems make it hard to get around these days. Yes, I was relieved to receive the progress update texts and was reassured to know my vote was properly received and counted. I even got a "I VOTED" sticker which I dutifully placed on my PJs until the curious cat stole it.

Still, I missed that anticipatory thrill of participating in hands on democracy in action that had been engrained in me for a life time. There's a feeling of smug satisfaction, of accomplishing something greater than just a civic duty when you join the queue and make your way to a voting booth. Adding your ballot to the box brings with it a sense of history, responsibility and respect for everyone who made it possible for us to vote freely and without fear of reprisal.

I really did miss being engaged in the action, feeling the esprit de corps of other citizens, all of us members of a unique club.

6. You experienced the pride in a new way; voting despite your health.

That's something to be proud of, too!

7. My drop-off ballot was accepted and counted for!
