I Voted!

[tanaqui]

Use this post to tell us you voted -- whether today, in early voting or by mail -- and what it was like.

Was it busy when you voted? Did you have any nice encounters and conversations when you went to vote? See any good or unexpected signs? Or any cute dogs? (Cute dogs at polling stations are a bit of a tradition in the UK -- I don't know if it's the same in the US!)

Did you persuade any friends, family or co-workers to go and vote?

Oh, and have a sticker.

I early voted by 'mail' (ballot drop box) on my birthday and got a virtual sticker from the King County website! I do miss the ritual of going to the polling place and being ticked off the list and turning in my ballot, but I have to admit doing it all at home is much less stressful. Last election, the ballot drop boxes got stuffed so full they had to start taking them out early. The poor box is just kind of sitting all by itself with no security guard or even camera trained on it that I could see. I had the urge to stick around and defend it, LOL. Last time there were lines on the day! http://www.capitolhillseattle.com/2017/11/election-day-on-capitol-hill-and-the-broadway-ballot-drop-box-is-busy/

Oh, I'd be all worried about a lonely, unattended dropbox, too -- except from the pictures, it looks like it might be able to take care of itself! (Apart from anything else, it's a lot bigger than I was imagining before I clicked on the link.)

Glad to hear you still get a (virtual) sticker even though you don't go to the polling place. :-)
