I Voted

Yes, I voted, and I was the only voter there.  There were only two things on my ballet, although there were more for the other party.  More for the people in the neighboring town, who were voting for mayor.  My polling place is usually the DMV, which wasn't open today.  I wonder whether voting day is a paid holiday for them. 

I like the current system, where voters take a pencil and ballot and fill the ballot out by hand, then put it in the machine.  It seems like the best of both worlds.  Voters can take as long as they need to puzzle things out, but it's still a fast count.
