I just got home from voting!
Edited on Tue Feb-26-08 08:30 PM by tammywammy
I live in a red city in Texas. There were about 20 people in line when I got there a little after 6pm. The 5 or so people I heard were all getting the democratic ballot. It was a mixed crowd of white, black and Hispanic.

The poll workers were awesome! They asked each person if they needed their card stamped and explained it clearly that it needed to be stamped for the caucus. One person wasn't sure where their precinct location was (for the caucus) and one worker took her over to the big map and helped her find it. I've already lost my registration card and got a little slip that they filled out for the caucus. The 5 I heard all got stamped for the caucus. :)

5. Well, of course it felt great
I always have a feeling of satisfaction after I vote, even when it's just little city things.

14. Just satisfaction
Like, "yeah, that's right, I did it, I voted!" I get that voting high like bicentennial baby says, even if it's on little city things.


And then I went to the grocery store. LOL
