Normally voting in my town is a quick thing – 5-10 min wait. Today, however, we had quite a few folks in voting at 7am. I got into the church at 7am and left at 7:48am. Classes start at 7:50am. Thankfully it was only a 3 minute walk from the church to the school and I got the kids into the classroom before the pledge of allegiance began. To get through faster, I went with a paper ballot and since I knew exactly who & what I was voting for, I was done quickly and able to get my pencil off to someone else. (They needed more pencils – hope they got some!)
Tomorrow will be interesting. I’m hoping that tomorrow my school will still be solvent, my president-elect will be black, and gay marriage in California will still be legal. *crosses fingers*
Here’s hoping the greater turnout of voters makes a good choice 😀
And it looks like they did – yay!
I’m hoping that tomorrow my school will still be solvent, my president-elect will be black, and gay marriage in California will still be legal. Same here! >:3
Well, looks like we have to work on #3 a bit, but thankfully 1 & 2 got sorted out!
I’m hoping the 18-25 came out in full force today like they did at my college.
Looks like they did – yay!
Looks like two out of three, mate. (Going off your other post re: the school.) Could be worse; could be better.
Indeed. Considering I was expecting the worst, things are a WHOLE lot better today than they were yesterday.
