Reporting from Chicago — First Lady Michelle Obama promoted early voting this morning – in words and example – at a time when both political parties are encouraging their supporters not to wait until election day.
Obama, who is making a Midwestern campaign swing, cast her ballot at the Martin Luther King Community Center, not far from the Kenwood home that she and President Obama rarely get to visit.
Clutching a blue folder, Obama presented her credentials to election officials before being led to the polling station. Asked if she was familiar with touch-screen voting, Obama nodded and then spent about six minutes casting her ballot.

Michelle Fashion Police Alert Ping!
FReepmail GOP_Lady if you want on or off this ping list
Did she vote for ‘Rich Whitey’ for governor?
That looks like a back support more than a belt!
Does she wear a wide belt to cover the other udders?
OMG...does this woman ever look in the mirror??
What a fashion maven. Oh is she voting “early and often?” Or just early? Does she vote in DC too?
Jaw dropping hideous
Vote early, vote often!
She must have had some heavy lifting to do after she cast her ballot.
Funny, if you took the word “Belt” out of your title, I’d still know exactly what you meant
She looks like an upside-down Bolo paddle...
Is that first picture taken at a whose ass is biggest contest? If so the judges are going to have their hands full.
Oh, good grief. Doesn’t she have a single friend or family member who’ll tell her how awful those belts are?
Oh my gosh, who in the hell picks her clothing??? Stevie Wonder is BLIND and dresses better! She just looks terrible, utterly terrible.
Another thing - the boob belts make her look twice as wide...
Is it my imagination or is it held together with a giant silver safety pin?
‘Boob belt’ is exactly what it is unless it’s for hooking a wire to the back of her and swinging her in circles.
“Obama nodded and then spent about six minutes casting her ballot.”
6 minutes? Was she waiting for the spirits to guide her?
Manchelle look in a mirror. those clothes you wear are not your friend
I blame compact fluorescent light bulbs. I can’t see a darn thing in my closet with those things either.
From the front, the belt is actually slimming—from the back view it is awful! Of course when she hugs that “fellow voter”, Michelle looks slim—LOL
