Time to take part in our national ritual! In 
the United States, our civic religion is democracy, and our liturgy is 
voting. As we celebrate hard-fought, hard-won rights (from Revolution to
 Abolition, from Equality to Full Enfranchisement), we
 join hands in this political process to venerate freedom and sustain 
our civic culture.
Long life to the Republic! Remember that it is 
strengthened by our participation and aided by our commitment to 
democratic principles.

The Atlantic Wire: "The Length Americans Are Going to Cast Ballots."
