Voted in PA! (Clinton Group)

For Hillary and her delegates, of course!

We're in the midst (mist?!?) of a batch of thunderstorms and heavy showers, so I drove there and back in an absolute downpour.

I hope Hillary appreciates what I do for her.

On the way out, I was accosted by a candidate who wants to be listed on the ballot in November--a Libertarian. I kindly demurred. He got a little nasty and asked, "Don't you believe in choice?"

I responded, "Not for Ayn Rand Republicans. Good day."

Not my best moment.

Edited to add: I was voter #211 in my district, which at 1:30 PM is actually very heavy voting. Last November I was #100 or so a few hours later!

Got a call from a Clinton delegate (Clinton Group)

I just received a call from a lovely potential Clinton delegate named Beatrice--who told me it was her dream to vote for Hillary Clinton in the State delegate process and asked for my vote tomorrow for her.

She sounded like an older lady who's very into the political process here in Pennsylvania.

I told her of course!

(Actually, I have to review our ballot when I have time this evening so I know what I'm doing when I get in there tomorrow).

Wyoming Results Coming In!

Clinton just won Cheyenne, which is interesting. Today might not be quite as bad as we feared (although I do expect Sanders to win the state, big).
