Regardless of your ideological leanings, it's always worth keeping an eye on potential changes in your nation's election processes: Possibility of Postponed Election Day Raised (USA). Note that no actions have been taken yet, Ridge is merely raising the possibility of requesting this power for Homeland Security in the event of a terrorist attack near the election day.

Because, you know, a scheduled terrorist attack wouldn't happen on the day they finally do hold an election.

I can imagine the uproar... the marriage rights amendment hasn't gotten much press, but this will turn the entire nation on Bush.

My opinion (that and $0.50 will buy you a cup of coffee) is such:

Enough already with the threatening us with a possible terrorist attack. It's getting old, and I'm getting annoyed. Leave the election day alone. If they're too afraid to vote, then they don't have to. Remember - it's your choice as to whether or not to vote.
