No matter who you’re going to vote for, even writing Cookies Monster as a write-in candidate –
- Remember that voting is one of the only civic responsibilities you have as a citizen. (a brief aside – Apparently on Election Day in 1758, George Washington used his campaign budget (50 pounds) to purchase 160 gallons of liquor and served it to the 391 voters. They state, “The custom of buying votes with booze was one of the English traditions imported to the American colony.” Be thankful that you do not live in Ohio. There is a clause in Ohio that prohibits idiots from voting — no, really. It reads, “No idiot, or insane person, shall be entitled to the privileges of an elector.” )
