a difference. We had a Senator Primary and my Senator is a Dino Dem..and two challengers (we don't know where they came from) were on the ballot. She hasn't been a good representative for Progressive Dem issues...but, she's totally safe...so I voted for one of the two challengers as a protest vote. Hopefully, she will know that this long time Dem Voter (who donated to her on her first run) is very disappointed and would vote against her in her safe Primary for another candidate that had little to offer.

I voted for Dems I knew on the other issues for our State Legislature. The Judges I needed to get from my Democratic Progressives Web Site for their record to figure out which ones would be best for Democratic Principles over RW Conservative.

Poll monitoring showed that there was light turnout. My district is heavily Repug...and the turnout was higher for that crowd observing the voting machine tally around 4:30 p.m.
