Feeling enfranchised

Well, Arlington County came through and got our absentee ballots to us, so last night we filled them out and hopefully will get them in the mail today. Not that our vote will really count because, barring a small miracle, Virginia isn't exactly a swing state. Still, I hate to miss any election, let alone a presidential election. The only bummer? We didn't get the usual "I Voted!" stickers. (By the way, are there any other countries where you get a sticker, or anything else, for doing what should really be a basic civic duty?)
