Those are absolutely heartwarming figures, but I'll only feel good come the results on election day.
I am voting today at the advance!
The XYL and I just came back from voting. There was a very long queue and the returning officer said that it was busy from the moment that the poll opened. It is in a church foyer and the foyer was full. The weekend should see them queued out the door of the church and down ramp to the sidewalk.
