EAT AND VOTE!!!!!

Dear Comrades,

If there is one thing you today, other than eat a meal with one you love, VOTE!!!

And after you vote, make this recipe, to keep you light for the various parties, democrat or otherwise you may attend:

Voting Vinaigrette Salad
Elements
lettuce - green or red
beets, canned, drained, sliced
garbanzos, canned, drained
asparagus, fresh if you can get them
parsley
a bit of basil, chopped
a bit of garlic
1/2 a red onion, diced
olive oil
balsamic vinegar

PREPARATION
place lettuce in a bowl, add beets, then garbanzos, and asparagus, and garlics, onions, and basil. TOSS. Remember, voting is never a toss up. You must always make a choice.

Mix olive oil with balsamic in small bowl. I use a 3:1 ratio vinegar:oil. xperimnt with what you like. Add salt, and pepper. In the words of Bob Marley, "Stir it up" and pour over salad. Toss, and then add parsely as a garnish to let people know you voted today.


The recipe is quick for those that have to stand in long voting lines!!!

I have also included some information from my comrades at moveon.org for more info on the VOTE!
See below.

In solidarity,

Dear MoveOn member,

Can you believe it? Election Day is finally, finally here!

There are lots of people out there who support Barack Obama but still aren't sure how, when, or where to vote. It's more common than you think—some of the people who have questions are probably your friends or coworkers.

So we've compiled all the info people need in order to vote, below. Not just where to go, but also what to do if there's a problem.

We're aiming to get this out to 200,000 voters by 10 a.m. Please forward this email on to everyone you know—and then click here to tell us how many people you sent it to so we can track our impact together.

Thanks!
