I think it's profoundly cool that my first time voting, the first time I have ever formally engaged myself in the political process, is during an election that is also the first of its sort (if I am not mistaken). I don't think it's all that unreasonable to think that this election will go down in the history books, even if it only garners a sentence or two. I think that's just the neatest thing.

I've voted in two general elections, three local elections, two by-elections and a handful of council elections. It's never struck me as mind-boggling, but then I never got a sticker, either.
