    No, I'm not clicking on the link--if I start on youtube, I'll end up surfing for hours, & never show up for work!

    For most people, you can vote before/after work or school.

    And if you are truly busy from Sunrise to past Sunset next Tuesday, there are plenty of other options, including absentee and early voting.

    I was at the Main Place Mall last night, and there was a long line of folks waiting to take advantage of the Early Voting Center for Orange County. They had 8 machines set up, and had about 30 folks waiting to be processed. (It takes a bit longer, as they deal with every precinct in the county).

    They want you to take the day off to volunteer for the campaign's "get out the vote" efforts, not to vote yourself.
