We at the New School have been slacking a bit lately [I suppose that's an understatement], as we’re all still getting used to our new lives at college. Today, however, marks one of the most important days for our American democracy, and it’s crucial that everyone, young and old, vote for their candidate of choice. Go the polls no matter if the election has been called already, because we all know that every vote matters. If you’ve been a persistent reader of the blog, you’ll be able to figure out who each of us supports, but we encourage you to make up your own mind. Find the facts on your candidate in the New York Times Election Guide and make sure you choose a candidate who can make you proud on January 20, 2009. While you’re at it, get your friends to vote. Volunteer for your candidate. Make a difference.

Katherine Q. Seelye of the NY Times offers a glimpse of their coverage of tomorrow night. Meanwhile, Slate’s John Dickerson gives their hour-by-hour playbook of what you should be doing tomorrow night. I know the three of us will be sitting by watching TV and refreshing our computers by the minute watching the miracle of democracy. Enjoy your Election Day!

And remember, while we all may not be pleased with the outcome tomorrow night, we are all Americans.
