(12 posts)I just got home from my polling place. It is an honor to, for the second time, shade in the Obama/Biden bubble. I have been a weepy sap since watching the coverage of last night's final campaign rally. I somehow kept it together while at the polls.
Everything was smooth as could be. The poll workers were all friendly, helpful, and truly seemed dedicated to making sure every person was able to cast their ballot.
Although this is absolutely wonderful, I could not help but being upset by one thing. ALL voters should have a voting experience like mine-- Show up, sign in, fill in ballot, cast ballot, receive confirmation that your vote has been counted. It should be this way EVERYWHERE.
May anyone attempting to buy, steal, cheat, suppress, sabotage and violate our right to a democracy only have it backfire tenfold.
