The citizens of Iraq and Afghanistan dip their fingers in ink, mark their ballots, and hold up the ink stains on their fingers as a show of support for the democratic process.Here we tap touch screen terminals and get a sticker to show we voted. I hit the early voting booth today and this is my symbolic gesture - it's not ink, but it sorta means the same thing. Here's hoping that the world is a better place in 4 years.
