With a little advice from Olive, who is a most intelligent dog, Ryan and Dad went to vote. Friday Ryan became a Marine; Tuesday a voter. Our family takes both responsibilities very seriously. Mark has looked forward to this day for years. It is a true milestone for both father and son. I voted after work. When the election volunteers looked up my last name, they asked if it had been my son’s first election. They thanked me for his service and seemed genuinely tickled to be part of our day. We are truly blessed to live in a country worthy of serving, and voting, and raising our children in. Kinda funny that I most always vote Republican in a Democrat state. I still don’t consider it a thrown away vote. I feel blessed to participate.

The United Kingdom heads to the polls on 12 December. But how well does this electoral system work?
Is ‘first past the post’ still the right system for the UK, and if not, what should replace it and how can we get there? What should we make of recent proposals to lower the voting age to 16 and introduce voter ID? What other changes might be required to produce a Parliament that better reflects public will?
In this panel discussion, we asked how well the electoral system works, how it affects trust in government and Parliament, and how it might be improved.
Our panel:
Antony Green, election analyst at the Australian Broadcasting Corporation
Darren Hughes, chief executive of the Electoral Reform Society
John McTernan, commentator and former adviser to Tony Blair
Mandu Reid, leader of the Women’s Equality Party.
The event was chaired by Emma Norris, director of research at the Institute for Government.
We would like to thank the Electoral Reform Society for supporting this event.

for now i am giving up. i am too angry to function. too full of venom and hatred to think of anything positive coming of this election. i really feel like we got to see human nature`s true colors.. no one can hide behind the `we didn`t know` excuse anymore. bush has been caught in so many lies and has never been made to answer for them. there are no legitimate answers to the invasion of iraq left other than , `we just wanted to, and we like our cheap gas". america finally has a "strong" imperialistic leader who doesn`t need to justify his actions and the majority of americans like it. and for those 20% who voted based on morality and values, isn`t it nice to know that "values" have been redifined by the GOP to mean homophobia? aparently it`s more immoral for two same sex individuals to marry each other than it is to kill 200,000 people.
i`m sick.
We wound up in the only bar in Idaho without a TV. Argh. Fortunately, we had plenty of parties to go to that had plenty of teevees.
One of our lovely craftivists Rosa made these beautiful cross stitch patterns for people to use. You can make them in to Mini Protest Banners, patches for your clothes or accessories, whatever way you think people will see it and think about the importance of voting.
If you are going to use this pattern we would love to blog your piece on our group blogspot and ask you to write a summary about why you did your craftivism project etc. please email craftivist-collective@hotmail.com
If you like Rosa's designs please check out her other beautiful work at mylittlestitches.wordpress.com/ and
