Rock the Vote!

My name is Amber Seastrunk, and I approve this message...

Don't forget...

Get off of your... AND VOTE!!

(Please, someone tell me you got my subliminal little icons...
Elephants are known to not forget...
And a donkey is also called an ....
And, yes, I know, I AM a nerd!)

This year is proving to be quite an exciting race!! I'm lovin' it! Jon and I are taking the boys out to early vote tonight. Granted, they won't be able to actually VOTE, but it will be fun to expose them to the process now.

I remember "working" in Headquarters of candidates who were friends of my Gran as a little girl, probably around seven years old. I would lick envelopes and stamps, greet people at the door, and any other thing they could find to keep an overly-excited little girl busy. My favorite part was election night, staying up "late" to watch the polls and see if "my" candidate won. Perhaps it's because my family is very political, but, for me, this was all so fun! I also remember getting to go to the candidate's house on one occasion - I believe it was Election Night after the polls closed - to "celebrate." All I remember is having cake and punch, participating in a toast, and I think I wore a denim dress with a ridiculously huge red, white, and blue bow in my hair.

But I digress...

Whether you're an elephant or a donkey, get out there tonight to early vote, or head out with the crowd on Tuesday, March 4th to cast your oh so important vote!

Paid for by, uhhh, I guess Jon Seastrunk, my husband, since he works to pay our bills, including the internet connection. *wink, wink*
