Vote

Don’t forget to vote today!  A lot more than livable streets and transit is on the line today.  I actually thought about not voting, since I forgot to change my registration to my new apartment and getting over to the old polling location is a bit of a schlep, even on the bike.  But then I remembered all the hateful and hurtful things Paladino has said about minorities, women, and gay people and I realized that it doesn’t matter if I think someone is likely to win or lose with or without my vote.  Voting isn’t just about making sure the right person gets elected, it’s also about sending a message.  And remember: you can’t spell Paladino without “no.”
