Let's count our blessings today.
We are blessed in that, when it's time to vote, we don't have to walk miles to a polling station that may not have any ballots.
We don't have to stand for hours in line wearing a burqa in 90-degree heat. And we don't have to fight our way into the polling place just to cast our vote.
How lucky we are.
