I love my voting precinct. It is one of the smaller HoCopolling locations which makes voting a pretty low key affair. This morning, atnine o’clock, there wasn't even a line.
“We were busy earlier,” the election judge told me. Thatmakes sense, folks in my neighborhood seem to prefer voting on their way towork. This morning I opted to work a little at home before heading into theoffice.
Still, it’s such a voting backwater that there were nocampaign volunteers outside this morning. None. Not even a paid poll worker for Question 7.
After voting, as I drove to Columbia,I listened to Don Gonyea report from a polling site just outside Columbus, Ohio.He said he spoke earlier with an eighteen year old man who was voting for thefirst time. After voting, the new voter told the reporter that “No matter whowins, that’s my president and I’ll pray for him and wish him well.”
That made me smile.
