I blogged about it here http://jaypgreene.com/2008/11/04/why-i-vote-on-election-day/. National Review wrote about it here http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=NDFmZmFiM2ExOWI4NjFmOWUxN2E4MWQ2ZWRiNjRlZmI= . And both The Arkansas Project and Freeman Hunt. And Fred Barnes spent much of the early evening on Fox denouncing it. I also think it's funny that TV news loves to feature stories about long lines at polling places immediately followed by a call for everyone to get out and vote. It's like saying: "This food tastes awful. Would you like to have some?" It looks like everybody and his brother wrote against early voting yesterday.

It's more fun to vote on Election Day at your neighborhood precinct, and the lines are almost always shorter. I couldn’t agree more.
