(4,033 posts)Straight "D" on the all the partisan races. (Duh)
Unfortunately there were a number of races where (R's) were running unopposed, so I left them blank.
On the non-partisan races were we didn't know all the candidates, I voted for the ones I knew and then if I hadn't filled in enough blanks, just went for all the ones with female names. Figured that, in the main, the women couldn't possibly do any worse than the men.
When we got there there was only one other person voting, but I asked one of the poll workers about turnout and he replied "really heavy for this precinct". We normally go vote early afternoon, when most folks are working, so its not unusual to have our polling place all to ourselves. Now we just have to hold our breaths.
Tomorrow I'll take down our yard sign for Col Owens, the (D) running for KY State Assembly for our district, hopefully he'll be our new rep as of tomorrow.
