2008 Wisconsin Presidential Primary

February 19th marks the day where voters in Wisconsin head to the polls to cast their ballot for one of the nominees. The kicker of this primary is that all of the candidates who have been in the race are listed not just the two Democrats and two Republicans still in the running. The other difference between previous elections is the change of address from. I never remember having to fill out such an extensive, full sheet paper to change my address.

Not like it was a big deal or anything as it took me no more than 5 minutes to fill the sheet out and cast my ballot. However, this could cause some back-ups for those who are coming to the polls later, so my suggestion, as has been the suggestion for all events this cold, snowy winter, get it done early and you won't have to worry about that added time nor about waiting outside in sub-zero temperatures. If you must come later, for Heaven's sake, dress warm, make sure you have a valid form of ID or piece of mail if you're changing your address and keep your spirits up; for, you are doing your civic duty.

Good luck out there and I'll be excited to watch the results tonight, from the warmth of my apartment (okay, that was a low blow).
