Election Day

I have never been so glad for it to be Election Day.

This is the day that the ads on the TV and radio will stop. I'm very happy, because I'm sick of seeing them. This is the day that the ads will stop appearing in my mailbox. The ads were sent to me in my married name, my husband's name, my maiden name, our family name and RESIDENT. At our house we averaged 4 or 5 pamphlets/flyers a week. Sending me those pamphlets won't sway my vote. I already knew who I was voting for. Basically, politicians, you're throwing your money away. I only looked at the pictures and then threw them in the trash or the shredder.

This morning while putting out going mail in the mailbox, a political pamphlet was sitting on the end of my front porch. I thought that was a dumb place to leave it. It was raining and it was getting soaked on the top step of my porch. Wouldn't it have been better to leave it in the door? Oh well, it went right into the trash.

Tomorrow is a new day. A day without political ads on my TV, in my mailbox or on my porch. I'm Deloris and I approve this message.
