korafox: (RAWR)
Had a great realization the other day while checking into some things: husband and I are not, as we had previously thought, in the congressional district of a Republican who's going to win solidly.  We are in fact in the district of an extremely neck-and-neck race where the (female!) Dem candidate has something like a .1% lead in the polling over the Republican incumbent.  Apparently the redistricting two years ago was a lot more massive than I had realized (my dad says that either side of their street is the split between districts...craziness).  In any case, I'm looking even more forward to Tuesday's election because this means I have the chance to affect something on the national level as well as just local.  

And of course, I'm looking forward to the election because that means it'll, you know, be over.  It's not nearly as bad as the slog we went through to get to the 2008 election (and I even missed the last couple months of that by being overseas), but I'm definitely ready for it to be done.
