I exercised my right and privilege and cast my vote today.
Why do I get to weigh in early on who I'd like to see in the Oval Office? Because I am an absentee voter. My wee ballot will travel in a diplomatic pouch from the U.S. Embassy here in Tanzania to the States where it will then be routed to L.A. County. There it will be held until the proper time for counting.
It's an amazing gift we have, this freedom to vote.
