I never missed an election when I was a child, my parents took me to vote with them and it was not a problem. Even the littlest ones can wait for you to vote.

Most places will have things for the kids to do, ballots the kids can use to vote on as well (not real ones).

You do your children a service to bring them to the polls, it will help them to learn the meaning of their republic, and the fact that it takes _citizens_ voting and running the polls to keep it.

I live in Austin, TX and today is the first day of early voting. I just voted and was really disheartened to see lots of Obama bumper stickers in the parking lot

Cheer up girl! Austin is "san fran way out yonder" (queer capital) of Texas. I did vote early in the NW part of Travesty county too. The line was quite long out here, but most will be doing what I did - straight (R).

I "axed" the two BO supporters why they didn't have their table at least 100' from the voting entrance. They said "Why?" and I replied, "It's the LAW."

I’m not sure you understood. My kids do come with me to the polls. They know who I am voting for and why. However, I would rather vote early and wait 20 minutes, than vote on election day and wait for hours.

To put them in their yards, or the trash heap?

They're paying $5 per sign. They are "afraid of Obama."

We're charging $5 for the signs because we had to pay for them. Some are getting 2 signs and giving us $20 and don't want change.

Dems paying for something?! I thought the world owed them a living. Nonetheless, we'll take whatever support we can get. I think many are "afraid of Obama."

These are typical TX conservative Dems—not the radical libs. Many TX Dems vote Repub in presidential elections...and they really are afraid of Obama...just like we are.

Your vote is secure as any will be on election day. Don’t fall for the naysayers. I voted today and honestly there was a very small turnout which surprised me. Somewhere around 30% or greater will be the votes cast in early voting in TX if it holds to past elections. Statewide we’ve had an increase in registration which may help early voting turnout.

Texas will go McCain by a good margin, Cronyn will win going away and most other incumbents will be re-elected including the democratic ones.
