Just got back from voting. Our district uses a paper ballot, completing the arrow with a magic marker. It was a little weird to me, but maybe that’s just because I’m used to the huge, hulking machines with the switches and the big lever to pull across. I like that lever. Clunk. It feels more official than magic markering in a line.
But whatever. I voted! And it was breezy– no lines, no hitches! I’m thankful for that.
Now off to compulsively check the news, squeezing in some work before heading off to an Election Night Party. Its going to be the most stressful party ever.

We had the arrows too. I guess they don’t want a repeat of the ‘chads’ in the Florida election.

Oh that makes sense. Though I’ve never voted with the punch out chads either…:)
