You can electioneer inside the polls....well that is if you are only 2-1/2!
Thought maybe we might need something to lighten up the mood today. It is a tense time for most of us and personally I need a little break from phone banking. (I really hate last day GOTV, but I do it anyway)
Today here in Missouri the weather is pretty nasty, so I offered to babysit for my son while he and his wife went to the polls. They were adamant about taking my grandson's, as they have turned into political junkies this election season. My oldest grandson, who is 2-1/2 will tell you that Barack Obama is going to be President.
While driving to their polling place they were telling the 2-1/2 year old that they were going to vote for Barack Obama. He kept saying, "We are going to see Barack Obama". They quieted him down, because I had already warned them to not wear their Obama gear, and the other rules of electioneering.
Well, once inside the polling place, my grandson yells "Want to see Barack Obama". My son grabbed him up to quiet him, and he bursts out with "We are voting for Barack Obama". One poll working started to really get on my son, then realized that everyone else was laughing, so she quit.
You can get away with electioneering inside the polls if you are 2-1/2!
Any other fun or funny voting stories today?
