Lena Dunham is awesome. After she made a pro-election commercial for Obama,

someone had the audacity to question her. Her response was great.

“I did vote,” wrote Dunham on Twitter, before providing a longer explanation.

She tweeted, “I tried to get an absentee ballot but, because our nation’s voting system is a steampunk cornmaze, it didn’t arrive.”

“So not to be a martyr about it but I flew to New York to vote,” said the “Girls” star. “I wasn’t sure if my change of address had officially been registered [so] I went to my old polling place with my dad, where they let me vote by affidavit (what was totally allowed.)”

She concluded by joking, “Obviously I voted for Romney. I hope everyone has a nice day.”
