GO VOTE!

I am so grateful to live in a country where we have the freedom to vote. I was listening to NPR the other day and they commented that the United States sends election monitors all over to the world to ensure safe and fair elections in other countries. The host of the show joked that last week part of a Pakistani delegation was in Washington, D.C. for some meetings and the head of the delegation joked in the meeting that they were actually here to be election monitors. It was a joke because today in polls across this huge, beautiful nation people like you and me will go and vote for candidates and new ballot measures in safety. Early tomorrow morning we will have a new President and no matter which side you voted for today, (you may be sad and disappointed or you may be elated), but tomorrow you will accept the new leader. There will not be riots or wars or coups-just a new administration. This is an amazing process that we have the honor to be a part of, so go VOTE! Thank goodness for democracy and may God Bless America.
