Vote early, vote often
Yesterday I took advantage of early voting in Illinois — how cool is this option. Walked in, only had a 2-minute wait as opposed to the craziness of Election Day, and now I’m done done done! If you don’t have this option, though, I also just read about people offering free or half-price babysitting on Election Day — also very cool. (Hey, public libraries that are polling places: Have you thought of setting up stations to entertain kids while their parents are voting?)

Or vote-by-mail-forever options, as California is doing. Much nicer than waiting, and you can fill out your ballot while looking online at various sites for information. Oregon is conducting its elections entirely by mail and has been for some years.
