My polling place about two miles from my home. Jumped on Gilligan, glode down. Then in. Then into the booth. Then cast my vote. Then glode home.

The poll workers never even batted an eye.

That's great Eric. I always go and vote with the missus so we end up walking. But next time I might make an excuse and glide there myself.

Freezing rain forced me into the car to go vote. Rats...

Considering whom I had to choose from... Rats again.

Only thing worse would have been to neglect my duty and responsibility.

Good job to you too Karl! By the way WI is expecting another foot of snow overnight and snow everyday until monday where it will just be cold then start snowing again tuesday! Eric, looks like you'll have to wait longer before segvator can begin testing the mower attachment, that is if they are planning on making it! Only Darth would know that!

Not getting to choose is pretty bad, too. Arizona does not allow registered independents to participate in primaries...

Default We get to vote next week as well

And I always glide up to the polling place, park it inside near the door.

Never have I had a problem, just questions, where is the Segway, but I get that when I go to the Post Office too. People always come up and tell me who else they have seen on a seg in the 'hood! There are like 6 of us, I only know 3 of them.

I occasionally get people telling me they saw a guy on "one of those". It's just a shame it has always been me they spotted and not another glider. I had it particularly often when I changed from my i167 to my i170. "He was on a grey one" they'd tell me.
