Election is something to Tweet about

Get out the vote today! Polls opened here in Wells County at 6 a.m. and will remain open until 6 p.m. That gives you 12 whole hours to cast your ballot for the politician you hate the least...or something like that.
Meanwhile, across the country other registered voters are casting their ballots to elect senators and representatives; approve or disapprove of new taxes, new regulations and/or some other new things specific to their community.
Like making marijuana legal in California. (Proposition 19) That's an issue that is bound to make some people upset...or more mellow, depending on which way it goes.
Anyway, five of the ten Trending Topics on Twitter relate to the election today....and at first glance it appears Twitter-users favor Democrats over republicans. (But that's an unscientific guess.)


@rutabaga64 If the Repubs do win the House, they need to actually present plans and DO SOMETHING. They can no longer just sit back & bitch & whine.
