Finally
Eveyone who knows me knows that I am a big proponent of voting. I remember voting in my first election. I was in second grade and it was at the Catholic school that my parents had just transferred me to. We were forced to vote for who we thought would be president in that year’s elections. Myself and one other student in my class voted for Bill Clinton (thanks, Adam Troupe!) while every other member of the second grade voted for incumbant George Bush. When Bill Clinton won, I realized that I was very different than most of my peers. This has continued in my years as a voting Kansan and now a Missourian.
I’ve voted every in every election that I have been able. And every time my most prominent candidates have lost. Until today. My democratic senatorial candidate has won her seat in the U.S. Senate. Thank god, because I was starting to really get worried that my vote did not count.
Yes, welcome to Missouri…despite recent events, it’s actually a donkey state. 🙂
I voted for Clinton then too, and I was in your class. I remember voting for him bc we shared the same birthday and allergy. You remember Adam and not me 🙁
Technically you weren’t in my class in second grade. You were in my class from third grade on. Remember? That’s why I didn’t know you voted for Clinton too. Though I should have guessed.
