Bike the Vote!

Bike your vote to the post office!

I always, or almost always, bike my vote - since the polling place is on my way to work on my bike

I love this idea. The only thing is, I was planning on voting early so that I could use a paper ballot. Oh well, I can still bike the vote! (I just hope they have a place to lock up my bike once I get there!)

An excellent idea.

Our polling place is right where we bike past almost every day anyway, so we will most certainly be biking to vote, unless it is pouring rain that day or icey snow. If the weather is awful that day, we'll just walk down into town to vote and back. We rarely use a car to go to town anymore (1 1/2 miles round trip)- only if bad rain or when we have lots of stuff to buy or big boxes to mail, etc. This time last year we almost always would drive into town. Now that's progress!

I was in the democratic caucus in the 2004 election. I was the only person who rode a bike to that meeting.
there were HUNDREDS there and it was a lovely day too.

I put my ballot in the outgoing mail, so my bike didn't have anything to do with it.

JuJu = I biked to vote by accident! Was only returning library books and the early voting was at the library - so I took my turn in line and voted.

The parking lot was a total and complete mess with all the cars and parking problems. One lady was in her car screaming "Go, gawdda**it, just go" to all the cars around her. Was quite funny. I had easy parking and no probs. Thanks for reminding us all.

I rode my bike to my polling place for the primary, but it's only about a half mile away. I plan to do it again on Tuesday! The floor is kind of slippery in cleats, but I didn't fall down last time and I parked my bike inside. It might be more crowded for the main election, though.
I'd sure like to see more bikes out, especially since it will be in the low 80s here that day!!!
