A few things to do while standing in a poll line

So here you are, about to make your voice heard as we elect our future President of the United States of America. It's been a long, yet very amusing, entertaining, disheartening (did I say long?) election period. Frankly, I feel like we all just want it to be over already and standing in the line to vote could build one’s anticipation.  
 

​Instead of twiddling your thumbs and possibly questioning the significance of your vote, here is a list of things you could and should not do while waiting in line.
 
COULD: Research your candidate
Well, if you haven't already done so, now would be an opportune time to check with your political conscience
. Go through your mental checklist of things you want your future president to do.

SHOULDN'T: Complain about standing in line
Nothing worse than when someone complains and points our the obvious. 

COULD: Have a snack
It is a possibility that you could be standing in line for several minutes, if not hours. It would be smart to have a little snack to pass time. Something small like crackers/chips could be clutch.

COULD: Take a selfie and post it 
Think of it as a digital 'I voted' sticker to remember this memorable election year. Just don't take another one with your ballot, as you are voting. Take it from Justin Timberlake...

COULD: Listen to some tunes/podcast or catch up missed tv show
Just please do through headphones! Everyone in line may not be as entertained. 

​SHOULDN'T: Explain to the people around you why you think your candidate is the best
This is quite self explanatory.

COULD: Make sure you have all proper documentation
It would be quite embarrissing to finally get to the front of the line and realize that you left something like your photo ID. Take a look and see if you have the proper documentation.

SHOULDN'T: Get frustrated, and not vote at all
Your vote matters, so cast it!
