		<description><![CDATA[<p>My wife and I voted in Madison for the first time, this evening. I was already registered, she registered at the poll (taking advantage of Wisconsin&#8217;s notoriously lax voter ID requirements). Madison&#8217;s 56th Ward was voting in two elections: a primary for Seat 1 on the Madison School Board and County Supervisor for District 24.</p>

<p>We voted after I got home from work, around 7pm. We cast the 93rd and 94th votes of the day, for our ward. I wouldn&#8217;t have known about the election if it had not been for Jenna, at <a href="http://rightofftheshore.blogspot.com/">Right Off the Shore</a>. She blogged about <a href="http://rightofftheshore.blogspot.com/2006/02/i-voted-today.html">her vote</a>, which alerted me to the fact that an election was actually happening.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, while I knew about the primary for the Madison School Board, I hadn&#8217;t noticed that we were also supposed to be voting for a County Supervisor. So, we just cast our votes for Maya Cole and abstained in the County Supervisor&#8217;s election.</p>

<p>I&#8217;m still in the process of getting plugged into the political scene here in Madison. I was surprised today, I don&#8217;t intend to let it happen again. Fortunately, there will be another election in April. I&#8217;ll be ready for that one.</p>
