12 Days and Counting

It’s only 12 days until Americans will head to the polls to vote in the mid-term elections. All eyes are on the elections this year as many people believe there may be a big shift of political power.

The rise of the Tea Party, growing disappointment with the Obama Administration and the stagnating economy may prompt many Independent voters or fringe voters to vote for the Republican ticket.

U.S. Press Secretary Robert Gibbs recently acknowledged that Democrats may lose control of the House.

In fact recent polls show that the GOP will likely get the 39 seats it needs to reclaim control of the House.

However, on the other hand, more than 3 million Americans have already completed early voting. Most of them are Democrats.

It’s sure to be an exciting race.

If you want to stay on top of things on election day I would recommend the following sites:

In fact on the CNN site you can make a profile for the elections you want to keep an eye on, perhaps your local election. Just go to the “My Election” tab.
