Well...
...now that you mention it, we took our middle girl with us so she could see how it's done.

They wouldn't let her watch us vote.

I took Boy they let him go along. I even let him press the screen to "Cast Ballot". He was thrilled.

Come to think of it the lady at the table looked like a Democrat and she gave Boy some candy. It may have been a distracting thing. I just may have been disenfranchised.

So much for saga.
Damn you! You beat my time of 4 minutes. Maybe it was because of the one other person in line. It could also be because I wrote in my boss for judge Imagine a scruffy biker with long hair and a graveley voice as a judge...

Meatloaf
Like his song, Two Outta Three Ain't Bad

I did vote for Babs and Steny, but, in the end, I voted for Bush/Cheney. Or as Tom Petty says, "The Waiting is the Hardest Part." We shall see.

Anyone vote at Park Hall Elementary yet? I am voting this evening but I want to allow enough time to get there and wait so that I don't miss the 8:00 deadline.

You just have to be in line to vote at 8.

When we went we were in line and Boy was looking at a guy behind us like the guy had horns on his head. I glanced back to see what Boy found so riviting and I saw a "Kerry" button on the guys shirt. I leaned over and wispered to him "See you can never tell what one may look like" He smiled and said "nope."
