I voted!

Go, me!

Even though I have a raging bladder infection and was afraid, if there were long lines, I might have to ask the person behind me to hold my space while I ran to the bathroom (repeatedly), LOL! But I waited and went after 9 am, when I thought many people would already be at work, and as a result there were virtually no lines when I walked in (although short ones were forming by the time I left).

The parking lot that I usually park in when I go to vote was completely full, with a big line of cars waiting for spots, so I zipped into one of the few empty spaces in the overspill lot and the boy and I walked over. (It was still a short walk.) There were definitely significantly more people voting than in any other election I've gone to. (Actually, I think in 2004 I had to wait in a line to check in etc, but we voted in the evening after work so it was a timing thing.)

The boy watched me fill out the ballot (we still have paper ones, which I like) and I have to admit there were a few tears in my eyes as I filled in the Obama/Biden oval.

Please.

*Hugs you so much* It's AWFUL that the poll workers allowed that to go on. He should have been stopped immediately, it's so completely inappropriate. And the fact that you had to listen to it... ugh. I'm so, so sorry.
