If you think voting is haraam, dont read any further

Inshallah today will be beginning of a new America.

Inshallah today, Keith Ellison will be elected the first Muslim congressman in the United States.

Inshallah the Democrats will win back the house, and Inshallah Rep. Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco will be lected the first woman speaker of the House early next January.

Inshallah, this change of leadership will yield a new change of direction in our nation’s foreign as well as domestic policy.

And in another two years, Bush will finally leave office and will be replaced by a real American, hopefully maybe even… Barack Obama? (InshAllah!)
Make sure you go out and vote today!!!

Here is some advice regarding Election Day from CAIR:

1. Find your polling station.

Find out where to vote through the Democratic National Committee here:

Find out where to vote through the Republican National Committee here:

(Remember, as a U.S. citizen, it is your right to vote! Most states have laws guaranteeing you the right to take time off work to vote.)

2. Bring identification, such as a driver’s license or passport. Most states require it.
3. If you would like a paper ballot, request it. You do not have to use the electronic ballot if you don’t want to.
4. When you are done voting…grab an “I Voted” sticker and sport it. Wear it with pride.
5. Drive home safely, and congratulations on voting.
6. Call your family and friends and make sure they went to vote. Help them to find their polling place.
7. Remember, if you don’t vote, don’t complain.
