feeding the electronic ballot counter
The polls are open. People are voting. Get out there and do you duty.
Voting tip: While I was in line waiting to vote in Arcata, a man came in who had received an absentee ballot by mail. He had decided to vote in person instead. To do so, he had to go home and get his absente ballot, otherwise all he was allowed to do was cast a provisional ballot, which would later be compared with the voting rolls to make sure he did not get to vote twice. So, if you neglected to cast that early ballot, and still want to vote, be sure to bring your ballot to the polling place.

Is the blurry photo some sort of symbolism?
Naw. Well, maybe I was subconsciously trying to keep the election is soft focus.
I think I know who this person in the photo is…Bob do you know this person???
I do.
(That’s what I said 26 years ago.)
Isn’t that Amy?
It is.
But how did you know? Do you know Amy?
If you’ve voted and find yourself in Eureka stop by the Shanty and get a free drink! (I’m not sure how long this offer lasts, but be prepared to show proof that you’ve voted.) Cheers to change!
I voted at 4pm in Sunnybrae. The poll workers said their busiest hour was from 7 to 8 am. Where they usually have 300 voters per 13 hour day, they had two hundred in that first hour alone. Good Job!
