I wore my favorite Jerry Garcia tie to vote today.

[postulater]

In Milwaukee County there were two candidates for sheriff, Clarke, Jr. the republican who runs as a Democrat to get the minority vote, and Angie Walker (no relation) who is running on the Draft Bernie Sanders for President party. I voted for her.

PS: The voting ladies liked my patriotic tie, especially when they found out it was a Jerry Garcia tie.

1. You lucky DUer!

Great tie, too!

8. Nice signature.

I'm reading EO Wilson's 'Life on Earth'. It is a free basic biology text available through iBooks as part of a course through iTunes U called Biology: Life on Earth.

The course has lots of notes, audios/videos, links to lectures, apps and documents. It should keep me busy through the winter.

2. I wore a tie-dyed T-shirt and my hat with my buttons on it.

"Question Authority"

"Does Not Play Well With Stupid People"

"I Am An Enemy Of The State"

3. I wonder if they could tell who we were voting for?

[hobbit709]

4. My precinct is solid D 80% Obama in 2008 and 2012

They've seen me in that hat with those buttons since 1990 when I moved to this location.

7. I wore one of my tie dyed shirts too.

I almost thought I shouldn't and should just go for plain, but then I figured, i wear it everywhere else, why not!
And yeah, they probably knew my political leanings!

Didn't have any buttons, but I did have my grandsons with me, so they can learn civic duty is important, even in the pouring rain!!!!!

11. Taking your grandsons to vote is one of the best lessons they can learn.

Establish the habit early.

5. I'm dressed in Royal Blue

6. I almost wore my Elizabeth Warren 2016 button, but that would be too obvious.

[Liberalynn]

9. Lol

I have to get an Elizabeth Warren button.

10. More than likely I'll iron my shirt

probably won't iron my blue jeans though as I seldom do
But you can bet your ass I will vote straight ticket Democratic. 100% democratic voter here in madokie land

[postulater]

12. Yeah, ironed blue jeans is going waaaay too far.

They would mistake you for a republican.

[madokie]

13. Creased down the front of the legs definitely would be a give away

When I do Iron mine I don't do the creases thing.

i got in the habit of ironing my shirts while in junior high and its stayed with me every since. I've got it down to a science, the ironing that is

[Aristus]

14. Good for you.

I own about eight Jerry Garcia ties. I'm wearing one right now. I didn't think to connect it with Election Day. I just wore it because I like it.

15. I wore my Cubs cap in suburban Milw...when challenged about it

I almost said I believe in hope even for losing causes.

But I said...ya, they are obviously a team not into effective use of performance enhancing drugs

[postulater]

16. Nor are the Bears this year.

Still great rivalries though. Regardless of who wins.

[HereSince1628]

17. The hiring of Joe Madden was a boost to Chicago sports morale

in what looks to be a pretty bleak November before a deep and dark December

My guess is the Bears are probably already looking for who'll be coaching the spring mini-camps.
