Hey.

You may or may not have heard, but there's an election going on this year. Tuesday, November 6. Surely you've marked your calendars.

This election, like every election, is important.

Your vote is needed. <a href="http://www.everydaytreats.com/2008/11/voting-a-cautionary-tale.html">You may remember that I didn't vote in 2000 and how the whole George W. Bush business was my fault. </a>

Please don't hate me. I've apologized enough.<a href="http://www.everydaytreats.com/2008/11/voting-a-cautionary-tale.html"> But go read my story</a>, and remember that every single vote counts. Including yours. (And mine!)

Now it's 2012, and after the crazy whackadoodle election season we've had, I'm feeling some fatigue. You probably are as well.

But don't give up now.

The Presidential debates start tomorrow night. I'll be watching, and I think you should too. Be a part of the conversation.
