It was nice to see the lady in the McCain-Palin shirt and the lady with the big Obama button greeting each other warmly and talking about their kids in line at the poll. Sometimes I fear that the rhetoric is too nasty and we as a country are too polarized, but maybe in real life that is not the case.
A Girl Scout troop had a bake sale in the parking lot of our polling place. Good call, kids.
I registered to vote in high school, and I've voted in every election since, including the primaries and off years. I suppose I do take it for granted, to some extent. Today in line, there was a guy in front of me, probably in his 50's, with an accent I couldn't place. He asked me some questions about the procedure, and for reference I asked if he'd voted in the primary, because our polling place was set up differently today. No, he told me, today was the first time in his life he'd ever been able to vote for anything.
