For my readers in the USA, today is Election Day. It seems like this campaign began years ago, but now it's coming to an end.

I voted early because I am out of the country right now.

If you aren't registered to vote, check to see if your state allows same-day registration and to see what documents you need to register. You can find a list here. If you can't register and vote on the same day, register today anyway, so you won't miss out next time.

If you haven't voted yet and you are registered to vote, please do so. People have died for this right. People continue to die for it. Honor their sacrifice.

It's a powerful thing we do – determining the future of our nation and our world. Don't waste the power.
