Is it too general to say that Americans like to vote?  We’ve got presidential elections coming up in 2012, local referendums and even popular TV broadcasts like American Idol the almost forgotten Total Request Live, not to mention awards like the Teen Choice Awards, People’s Choice Awards. Opportunities for Democracy run deep in this country. It isn’t just restricted to those of us near DC. You can even vote on the best restroom in America, if you want.

And why not? This country has some pretty awesome restrooms. Voting sends kudos to creative and hardworking designers who don’t get the recognition of say, President Obama or Scotty McCreery, or other elected figures. Show support for the creative minds that turn a purely functional space into an additional attraction for many venues.

To vote, simply visit bestrestroom.com and rank the candidates from 1-10. It’s fast, easy, and a relatively entertaining to waste a few minutes of downtime. Voting ends September 19, 2011.

We want to know, what is the coolest restroom in Lorton near Woodside apartments? What is the worst?
