Vote YES for TRANSIT!

We all know that I love public transportation, right? So it only seems natural that I do what I can to help out our local public transit agency as they try to pass a proposition to raise some much needed funds through a sales tax hike.

Step 1: Put up a sign in our yard. I know 20th isn't a super busy street, but at least the neighbors can see.

Step 2: Doorbell. This morning, I went doorbelling (for the first time evar). We basically just dropped of literature and asked them to review it before they voted, so no heated debates on doorsteps. It was an interesting experience and one that I'm glad I had. How much difference it will make is yet to be seen.

Step 3: Implore friends. If you are a registered to vote in Skagit County, please vote yes on the Proposition 1 Transit*. Otherwise, I might just be calling you when they cancel the bus routes that allow me to lead my [mostly] car-less existence.

Chris, it could be a character encoding thing maybe that is causing your comment not to go through. E-mail it to me and I'll see what the dilly is, yo.

So where can I get a sign? 6th street is a prime signage route.

In our doorbelling, your house was on our route, but the imposing front steps cordoned off with rope led us to skip it. Plus, I guaranteed that you would be supporting the measure anyway. I hope I didn't lie.

I'd support it. Never rode public transportation before my recent move to LA. Now I have to hop a couple buses to get to school. It's actually quite nice.
