Hey, You know this is a forever thing… Not only did I vote, but I worked long and hard for the Campaign for Change, in addition to being a poll watcher. And I am so glad that so many people voted! in this election. If you can, send me the PDF, if not, it is okay. And thanks for your part in getting people out to vote!

Um hello. I just found a link that led me here for a fabulous hat pattern that I love. (the link was from ravelry)
I did vote on Nov. 4th for the US presidential election. My sticker has long since disappeared.
Can I still get the pdf for the pattern? PLEASE!!!!

Hope I’m not too late for the hat pattern.

I voted – in Canada, as you can see from my e-address. Not only did I vote – I had to vote early because I worked for Elections Canada both previous to the election and on the actual day itself.
We don’t get anything to say that we have voted, but the work I did before the election encouraged some people to vote.
Prior to the election, voters get a chance to phone in to say their name is spelled wrong, their address have changed and/or to ask where they can go to vote, etc. And I was the person on the other end of the phone!

Happy knitting,
Janey

Excellent idea! I did vote and it’s nice to know that some people are happy to reward what should already be seen as a
privilege. Cute hat too!

thanks so much for doing this– i can’t tell you how inspiring and exciting it was to vote yesterday morning. it was electric…the tension and excitement was just palpable and present. it was amazing. never did i think that this would actually happen and i’m just so relieved to know that finally we have someone on our side in the government. even my international friends are happy for us! i just hope we can all unite together behind our new leader, especially since he’ll need all the help he can get. thanks again and love reading your blog. ) ek.

Oh and my proof…lol my parents made a big deal out of the election cause it’s a super historic one, and they took my sis and I to vote with them, took us to breakfast, and then my mom took my sis, her friend and me to the Susan B. Anthony house (she fought hard for women’s voting rights with her younger sister Mary their whole lives). It’s so cool that both her and Fredrick Douglass lived within half an hour of my house, and the tour really made me appreciate the fact that someday I’ll get to cast my vote for president too
