OK. I'll be non-partisan for the moment. Red socks, blue socks, green socks ... whatever! Just get out there and vote!

I walked the mutt early, then jogged to my polling spot. There, it's fitness related. Don't be impressed, that's 2 1/2 blocks.

At 7 am the line was out the door and around the building. I saw people giving up space in line so that elderly voters could move ahead. Those checking their watches and looking worried about the drive to work we were passing the word around that by Federal law your employeer has to give you up to two hours off if needed to vote.

Duck will be pleased to know that (while we were further out than 100 feet) my neighbor in line and I chatted about some of the work our mutual Mom and Dad did in the old days in the Bay Area.

Normally there is no line at my poll, the line was out the door and down the side of the building I'm not looking at the news, not watching the polls ... don't tell me, don't tell me.

Not till it's all said and done. too nervous.
