The District Weekly: ELECTION 08: FOREVER CHANGES

  • Alex Roman · 1 year ago
    It took me 45 minutest to vote at 7:30 this morning...I've voted at the same place at the same time at least twice and was done in 5 minutes. There were many, many first-time voters who didn't know how to vote. The staff was very kind and gave them a brief tutorial. You can only hope that they will continue to vote in the future.

    It took me 5 minutes + 1 postage stamp about 3 weeks ago.

    I thought I would feel some sense of loss by not standing in a booth for the first time but based upon all the nonsensical goings-on I'm hearing about at some polling places, I'm really glad I elected to avoid the polling place.

    I am now a mail-in voter for life!

    Me too. Couldn't agree more.

    As for voting in person, I took my wife and we voted together for the first time. We waited about 20 minutes, and it was very satisfying chatting with folks.

    I don't wanna vote the same way I pay bills.

    I worked as an election worker. I am only now recovering from helping nearly 1000 people to vote on Tuesday. My voter precinct had over 80% turnout. It was an awesome day for democracy.
