Flying my Aunt back to Ohio to vote tomorrow
(Since I've been a lurker's lurker for nearly the entire life of this board...I thought I'd share a bit)

I have a wonderful aunt who lives in Columbus, a teacher and avid Dem. Last week, her daughter, my cousin, had their first child in nearby Illinois. Everything is wonderful all around, except my aunt had planned to stay for the first week or so to help, missing her chance to vote.

So...realizing how important this vote is, my family and I have chipped in to get her a round trip commuter flight to fly home, vote, and be back that evening.

so there's one more for the good guys in Ohio.
