The heavens stretched forth and Varol Okan decreed the following on or
about 10/29/2008 10:00 AM:
> Just to bring up the absentee vote.
> 
> If you have a reason you think you might not be able to make it on
> Tuesday ( if your commute and work exceeds 11 hours etc )
> http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/eb/absentee.htm#eligible

Sadly, I am not eligible.  I really wish VA would follow the path of 
Colorado (or at least Boulder); I liked having no-reason early voting.

However, since I usually vote at poll open at 6 am, the wait usually 
isn't too bad.  Or, at least, hasn't been.  For some reason, waiting 
outside an elementary school at 5:45 am on a November morning doesn't 
appeal to many...
