So I decided to vote today which probably was a mistake
but oh well.
First issue was my wife. She was not going to vote in person so I told her to fill it out and I would take it since where I was going to vote also had a drop off.
Everything was fine till she went to write and sign her name. Its as if there was some wax or something preventing it. The pen would write on everything else then real problems with where she had to print and sign. Finally after going over it like 10 x it looked passable.
So drove to the spot and there was a what looked to be very long line. I'd guess 150 ish people in line outside the Toro Tent (with miles of electrical extensions!).
Judging by the number of maskless knuckledraggers
Trump is going to get creamed. In the time I was there probably was 400 ish people only 9 not wearing a mask and maybe 3-4 with their mask no on the nose.
Only one woman tried to make an issue of it but the Trumper was belligerent so she backed down. Because the line snaked back and forth I went past the Trumper a couple times. He was loudly talking to a sucker with a Vietnam veteran cap on -and no mask- about how he
has been out of work because of corvid (he was somehow
in "entertainment"). Naturally he said he was voting for Trump because of corvid. I bit my tongue about the irony of a Trumper not wearing a mask complaining about corvid. You know cause society is not Tigerboard.
Finally I got up to vote and the check in process naturally had some computer glitch that kept sending me round and round with the added annoyance of having to press my responses sometimes 3-4 times. Took 4 workers to finally get it to work.
I axed about my wife's ballot if the signature would be OK - it was obvious none of the workers had a clue so I ended up dropping it in the box.
Then the final issue was my mother in laws ballot which you will recall she is in a dead state. The worker wrote deceased on the ballots but said I had to unregister her on line. You would think that the same county she died in would know that she is no longer fit to vote, but then you would be wrong.
All in all including driving to and fro (maybe 10-15 mins each way )the whole thing took about 1:45. Which is roughly about 1:20 mins longer than normal (for me).
I know the majority of this board would have voted for Trump with the deceased's ballot- but I'm a conservative not a republican.
Oh and go JO go. I was not part of the problem neither dem nor repub did I vote for.
