Entry 387: Voting Day

Today we did our civic duty and voted in our local election. This day is something that we both take pride in, but it also is a reminder of a funny story Lance has. When Al Gore and George Bush ran against each other in 2000 for the presidency Lance was not real impressed with either of them, so he decided to vote for Ralph Nader. Lance's grandmother always calls to make sure he votes, so when she called in 2000 Lance said he voted and that he voted for Ralph Nader. Lance's grandmother became upset at this news and told him that he wasted his vote and didn't talk to him for a few weeks. What can I say, we take politics seriously in this family.
