Yes, voters hit the polls early, braving long lines to make their voices heard today. But even those who can't step into the booth are helping out. Our Pennsylvania Choose or Lose Street Teamer, Cassidy Hartmann, came across two 13-year-olds in Philadelphia hoisting a banner reading, "Don't forget to vote today." One of the students said his teacher asked them to go outside and remind people to vote. But his friend admitted, "At first, I wanted to get out of class." Although they aren't old enough to vote (and aren't fully decided on a candidate), they do understand the importance of voting this Election Day. So why were they there? Check out Cassidy's video to find out.

Today, as voters scramble to the polls in West Virginia and Nebraska, our Chose or Lose Street Teamers in those states are on the ground, blogging their little hearts out.

But beyond the general excitement of the primaries in this overheated, seemingly neverending campaign (well, at least we'll have a Democratic nominee soon), the Street Team is bringing a more personal side to the process. From Nebraska, we've got an insider's peek at the US Senate campaign of Scott Kleeb -- a young candidate (above) whose fate will be decided today, and who just happens to be married to Street Teamer Jane Fleming Kleeb.

And for more on today's primaries, check out Griffin McElroy's reports from West Virginia.

So Street Team '08 -- our Choose or Lose reporters covering the election in every state -- partied it up green-style around the country in honor of Earth Day.

Erica Anderson of Washington, DC, checked out the Green Apple Fest in her town –- one of eight going on in different cities across the country this past weekend, with celebs, musicians, politicians, and thousands of fans coming out to support the cause. The DC show had Earth-friendly performances from artists including the Roots and O.A.R., and the National Anthem was sung, appropriately, by American Idol Jordin Sparks.

But the highlight for Erica might have been when she scored an interview with Chevy Chase (at 1:19), who answered her serious environmental questions in true comic form. Erica said that she rolled with the comedic punches until Chase turned somber and said, “’OK, I'll give you something serious.’ He went on to tell me about the candidates he preferred, who had the strongest policies, and that ‘McCain is like going back to the old days....no offense…’“

Also check out the Green Apple event in Denver, CO, through Street Teamer Trevor Martin’s video, featuring interviews with everyone from Aaron Neville to Denver’s mayor.

It doesn't just have to be Earth Day for the ST to jump on the environmental bandwagon (which is totally run on biodiesel). Check out their recent stories on green jobs, car conversions, and what the heck ethanol is.

And don't forget that it’s also the big Pennsylvania Primary day, when we might finally learn who the Democratic nominee for President will be. Check out PA Street Teamer Cassidy Hartmann's blog to see how it's all going down in her state.
