I cant vote today.
My state/county/town dont have anything to vote on.

Should I just show up to the polling place to say Hi?

1. sure, they like visitors
the folks at my polling place always seem to be having a great time, with lots of snacks and laughter.

Don't you have any judges or council folk to vote on? That's about all we have here today.

3. Our polling place is in one of our neighbors' garages
We have nothing to vote for today, but I am guessing that my neighbor might take issue with me hanging out in his garage.

Ours is at the local library. So at least you can read a good book while you wait in line.

6. I think people sign up to do it.
I believe anyone who does gets some sort of stipend from the secretary of state's office.

5. We have no elections either. I can't even go to the polling places
as they are schools, and the kids are in school today!

7. Same here.
I'm stuck obsessing over the Duluth mayoral race.
I am pathetic. I want to vote on something!
