Voting

If some national media outlet stops you at the polls today and asks if Tennessee voters are racially motivated, show them this (courtesy of BlueCollarRepublican).

Of course, not all voters are racially motivated; some have good reason.

At Oak Ridge’s Hendrix Creek precinct, PunkHP reports that a Massengill supporter is harassing voters.  Not surprised… they’ve been to my door about three times, the last a few days ago when I was on an important phone call.  After waiting at the door for ten minutes or so (12-year old Delta answered it) with Dog staring through the crack, they left.

I told Delta that next time, she should tell them that we’ve all already voted.

Still, if any candidate supporters harass you, call the Anderson County election commission at 457-5400 and report them.

As the rain pours and the election goes on and Tuesday creeps past as Wednesday draws nearer, keep praying for AT and his beautiful young wife who is still fighting for her life in CCU at Methodist Medical Center.

I can’t remember the last election day when the election itself meant less to me on that day.  Right now, I want to find the old guy with the clipboard and explain to him (as I so often apply to school board matters) that common sense and decency are more important than policy.

Keep praying.

  1. I agree NetMom. Usually I’m a political junkie that can’t wait to get the next tidbit of political news, but today I could really care less. I voted. That’s about all the interest I can muster. Just can’t stop thinking about BJ and hoping that she is getting a little better today….and maybe a little better tomorrow.
