voting

After work yesterday, I walked to the pharmacy to pick up some prescription refills and Covid tests, then stopped at the library (open 8 AM-8 PM) to vote. It was fairly busy, as "early in-person voting" goes: I had to wait in line a minute to get my ballot, then wait in another line for a minute or two for a shielded booth where I could fill it out. Still, in and out in under ten minutes; no complaints.

But it was depressing to see that they had erected 7-foot-tall, 2-foot-thick concrete barriers around the "voting" side of the library; I've voted at this location for years and never seen that before.

Glad it was that easy for you.

Today Mr. Fixer and I dropped off our ballots, which are required to be handed into an election worker's actual hands in this state. Today was the first day they were open for drop-offs, and there was no line when we went in.

No concrete barriers here.
