Today is Election Day in the United States, the “first Tuesday following the first Monday”, and even though this is not a presidential election year, we decided to hoist the flag of the presidential seal to mark the occasion, as almost all of our presidents have been elected in the first week of November. Other issues, from governor's races to local school and tax questions, are being decided across the country today. If ever there was anything to celebrate in this country, it is the continuation of democracy in action by secret ballot of all citizens.
