Ed and I were just discussing this. Ed's looking into it, but he seems to think, that early voting started this past Monday. But, because of budget cuts, the places to vote are very limited. I believe we have to vote at Courthouse in Clearwater. This would really make it a lot easier !

Early voting started here a week and a half ago.  I went ahead and picked up a ballot last week to check out and research the local candidates and such.

We were wrong,.. ( just found it )

Early voting here, starts two weeks before the general election date. We can early vote 8-4 Monday through Saturday.

Well....it's all over but the shoutin' for me.  Just came back from casting my ballot.
Now, I feel like celebrating.

I'm thinking something like a nicely hanging Chad might be nice.

There has already been strong turnout for the early voting options.  The latest news is that there have even been lines  forming for early voting in Cobb County...up to an hour and a half wait - for EARLY voting.

Also heard this on AM radio earlier today.

I voted Absentee for the first time this year.  Figured I didn't want to spend my birthday in a long line at the polling station.

Plus, it gives you a longer time to review everything instead of feeling a tad rushed when you have to go the day of.
