Vote today! Bring three people with you. Then call everyone you know and make sure they have voted. Keep alert for anything fishy at the polls or on your phone - and let us know if something seems amiss (800-SAY-DEMS). Today is the day when we can take control of our future and enact the kinds of changes we need in Wyoming (in the case of our congressional representation) or keep our state on the right track (by re-electing Gov. Dave Freudenthal and sending more Democrats to Cheyenne for him to work with).
The Internet's No. 1 independent politics site, DailyKos.com, has this 11th-hour report on Gary Trauner's election-ending tour across western Wyoming. Gary's campaign has excited and inspired a lot of people, people from all over who thought Wyoming voters would never oust an incumbent Republican from Congress, no matter how poor of a job she has done. But voters can see that Gary Trauner offers exactly what Wyoming needs: someone who vows to represent regular people instead of wealthy special interests. Someone who will work hard for us every day of his term in office. Someone who will work for what's right regardless of political pressure. And you know what? It's about time!
So get out there and vote! And get your neighbors to the polls! This is the day it all happens.

Nov 9, 2006 | Donni Toth | dtoth@centurytel.netOkay, we went to vote. But there were a group of people that didn't get to exercise their constitutionally assured right to do so. I was not there; I only know of this situation second-hand. But if it is as presented to me, the people of Hannah, Wyoming were not able to vote because of a serious glich in the system. The automated machines malfunctioned and there were no paper ballots to be used as a back-up. It may or may not have changed any election outcomes, but we must not let this violation of citizens' rights go unheeded just because they live in a small town in a small state. We must stand up for the them and insure that their rights are protected. It's the democratic thing to do and the Democratic thing to do.
