Reports have come in from a local Jacksonville, FL precinct that voting went very smoothly. Poll workers were courteous, and in spite of sticker shortages the experience was just fine.
Bob Brown, a web geek and blogger said, “We arrived at the polling station pretty late in the evening and stood in line outside for a few minutes before being allowed in.” There weren’t any issues with grumpy poll workers, “they were very courteous in spite of working a very long day,” said Mr. Brown.
I just wanted to read something good about voting experiences today instead of the articles that were probably written in advance and were just waiting for some minor details to be filled in on election day. Nothing ever goes smoothly, especially when dealing with millions of people. I would expect that these complaints are the last puffs of animosity for the 2006 election, but I doubt it.
They ran out of “I Voted” stickers just before we arrived, should I feel disenfranchised by that?
