*Woot* Is the DU Community ready for Election Night ? *Woot*
In the little over 2 years I've been here, I only remember about two or three Level 5 nights on DU. Some 2-4's, but they were brief.

Would this be a good time to refresh the members about Levels? Especially when donor stars kick in?

I think my first donation to DU was 2 days before Election Night 2004, I didn't want to miss a beat :patriot: :toast: :grouphug:

Just saying, this election is going to be much bigger than '04 :party:

1. I'm Not Counting My Chicken's
I will be a nervous wreck all day Tuesday, like I was in 2000,2002,2004 - just hope this one goes our way for a change.

3. Me too....
:hi: I'm sure I'll remember to breathe until 7pm et. Unlike the Prez elections, time zones won't be a problem affecting national voting results, but the et will start the trend? That is, if the et states are projecting Dems, good for the nation, if not, bad for us :cry:

6. I'll be staying off that night to free up the bandwidth for US DUers
I'll have all my fingers, toes & eyes crossed also I'll be wishing you all well.

The rest of the world will be watching and hoping as well. We hope you get your country back from the thieves.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

10. To keep myself sane, I have signed up as a pollworker
We have the good old clunky lever machines in my district. Most of the workers are in their 70's and have been doing it for years, if I have any questions. It will keep me away from the TV, and insulate me from guaranteed mania here, at least until 10 or 11pm.
(I WILL be tivoing comedy central, however,... and I will watch it Wednesday, as I bask in the glow of our glorious victories)
