I just voted today in the Western Suburbs of Illinois

I know that my vote isn't as important as those in a nearby district for Sean Caston but I was proud to be one more vote for Bill Foster, JB Pritzker, Suzana Mendoza and all the other democrats on the ballot. I did have to wait in line for a little while but thankfully I experienced nothing like in Georgia, North Dakota or Kansas.

For all those still yet to vote, I would encourage you to do so as soon as possible if you can still early vote in your state. You never know if you could have a heart attack, get hit by a bus or have some other extraordinary event that could prevent you from voting. Good luck to all the Democratic candidates all over the country.

About ZeroSomeBrains

I became political early in life once I lost my brother early in life. Since then I have tried to ease that pain by helping myself through helping others. I volunteered at a food pantry for about a year and work currently as an accountant. I voted for President Obama once in 2012, Bernie Sanders in the primary in 2016 and Hillary Clinton in the general. I have great pride in all of these candidates and votes and didn't vote for Senator Obama in 2008 because I was ineligible to vote by a month and a few days. I have also voted down ballot for democrats in every election except for one local candidate once in 2010 because he was my baseball coach but since has turned into a tea bagger. I recently joined the democratic socialists of america and love AOC bernie and democrats in general. Mostly I just want to say hi as well since I'm new here and hope to be apart of a great community.
