Re: Obama or McCain?
I voted early here in Florida on Friday. I had previously filled out my sample ballot (our ballot this election contains dozens of political races plus a half dozen amendments to the state constitution) so I wouldn't take too long to vote once I got to the supervisor of elections office.
While I was filling out my actual ballot in the "stand up booth", 3 different young blacks voted in the booth next to me. I was shocked that it only took each 10-15 seconds to vote. When I got back to the office, a co-worker said, "Obviously they were only voting for Obama and couldn't care less about the other issues."
She was probably right...they were only there long enough to fill out one or maybe 2 of the ballot selections.
Maybe they were patriotic and voting based on the issues, but thinking back, it certainly looked as if they just wanted to make sure Obama got their vote and nothing else mattered.
