Well, finally got my computer back online, as of a few minutes ago...it's been a month now, just about, that it didn't work right.
Doesn't feel right not to be able to freep when one wants to.
Meanwhile, went down and voted about 08:00. No lines, couldn't find my voter's reg card, but they said a driver's license would do just fine, which I had...they compared it to a list they had handy, on which my name and address were already typed, so I think it's OK to use the driver's license just to confirm info that's already there.
I hit the button for the Republican governor, but the machine registered a vote for the Dem guy...one of the polite volunteers came over and showed me how to fix the thing...anyhow, hoping for the best, but it may turn out to be time to reap what you sow.
Welcome back Sam! You had been away for awhile!
Glad you noticed the wrong vote... I'm about to head up to go vote myself, I'm still registered up in Gig Harbor, haven't ever bothered to switch it, so I have to go way out of the way :~)
I was going to blow it off, but I've seen been guilted into it by my father. :~)
With the possible exception of the very first time we voted here in MA, I've never had to show my ID. The ladies who work behind the tables at our precinct have been there for years, and they all know who I am. I just give them our house number; they remember the street, and they give me a ballot.
Welcome back, by the way! How's Jeanne?
We were down your way a couple of weeks ago. We drove Clare back to school in Naples after her Fall Break.
