A brilliant idea for rainy voting stations tomorrow
Have the local Democratic party snap up all the cheap umbrellas they can find, and pass them out to those who have to stand in the rain while waiting to vote-- but only to the registered Democrats.

Simply have them return the umbrellas when they leave.

2. If you stand in line and say LOUDLY "I'm voting for Kerry"
then you can have an umbrella.

3. If there's a big line

a roll of plastic might be more effective. And they can have an impromptu Conga Line.
