Sort of a weather junkie here so I started wondering what we can expect on The Most Important Election Day in our lifetimes. Folks, it's looking beautiful! If there's a chance of rain, it's below 40% and just look at these temperatures. For one day, and one day only, I will cheer climate change which gives us high 60's or low 70's in Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Indiana and elsewhere.
Water will be needed! Jeff Lieber and others have already given us great ideas for how to take care of voters standing in long lines. I'd like to emphasize the need for WATER. If you can, buy a case and take it to your precinct on election day.
