Voted at my precinct here in Chelmsford, MA just an hour and a half ago. It was what I would call "moderately busy" with about a five minute wait to get a ballot. All booths were taken and I had to wait a few minutes for one to open up.

I voted Mitt Romney (R) for governor and I am optimistic that he will win. Remember, it has been 16 years since a Democract/Socialist won governor here (hard to believe as they may be to outsiders).

There was a disgusting lack of Republican challengers for the other offices so I voted Libertarian or Independent for the other races where there was no Republican challengers. I did not cast a single vote for a 'Rat. If there was a 'Rat unopposed, I left it blank.

If Romney wins (as I think he will), he's got to start building up the Republican party in this state. Just pitiful.

As for the ballot questions, I voted YES on question #1 to repeal the income tax (though it is non-binding). I voted YES on English immersion (make the kids learn English so that they do not have to learn in Spanish). I voted NO to use taxpayer money to fund elections. And I voted NO on the Prop 2 1/2 override to build more schools in my community. (For those not familiar with Prop 2 1/2, it is a law limiting the increase in property tax in any given year to 2 1/2 percent.)

I am still seething over the fact that union thugs have been escorting non-English speaking Hispanics into voting booths in Boston and pulling the levers for them. Those bastards are cancelling out our votes and they need to be jailed.
