The Great Part Of This ELection

Whichever side you are on in this election, the best thing that is happening is the percentage of voters will be the highest it has been in decades. Look on the front page of your newspapers, the home pages of websites, the lines at your local polling places. THIS IS AWESOME! The more people involved the better democracy works.

I am hoping that once all the votes have been counted and the people have spoken that we will come together as Americans - not republicans and democrats, red states and blue states, conservatives and liberals, to move forward in the spirit of our founding fathers.

Even if tunout is much higher this year, I doubt it will break 60%, which is pretty sad. Here's a chart of past. participation rates: http://www.fairvote.org/turnout/preturn.htm
