This is a rural area and we have never seen so many people turn out to vote! Several cars had to park some distance away and we had to wait about 35 minutes. The poll workers said it had been that way all day. Also, we had two poll "watchers" there and that has never happened before.
We still have the old fashioned voting machines here ... big metal things ... have to pull the lever with two hands to close the curtains around you ... click those little levers ... open the curtain again ... all with lots of clicks and dings for sound effects. You really feel like you've voted after you vote on one of those old machines!
And we are not done yet. The husband and I are going to Kalamazoo this afternoon to help work the phone banks there!
