Notes from the Votes

The polls are almost closed, but the polling place stories continue.

This one comes to us from stopthemadness, who voted in West Hollywood. It wouldn't be an '08 Election Day without the gays!

i voted at the national council of jewish women… in the middle of boystown USA (west hollywood.) needless to say, there were a lot of well-groomed gays standing in line with their "Vote No on Proposition 8" stickers. (That's the same sex marriage proposition in California.)

well, in the lobby, there was a stack of sample ballots right next to a bowl full of condoms.

people in line definitely looked confused.

Why wasn't MY voting experience fun and filled with sexytime freebies? There wasn't a shred of whimsy in my experience. I'm feeling a little bitter about this, stm. You ALWAYS get the fun stuff.

The only thing I got when I voted was a glare of death from some old woman when my friend and I discussed voting for Obama. She looked at me like I had said I was voting for Hitler. Whatever.

OBAMA FTW.

Touche, stm.
Next time you get a celeb encounter posted, we'll have to figure out where to find that portal door so's we get some trolls up in here. Those trolls brought the commenty furiousness, yo!

Still. Maybe I wanted some free condoms.
