I always voted in an old school house that was built in the late 1800's but now our new city center is the place. I like the old school better.
"The charms of rural voting: Casting your ballot in a neighbor's living room"
No wonder rural votes are always going Republican...
A neighbor's dark living room, the masked neighbor quietly seated at a dark corner with a sawed off shotgun, confederate flags everywhere as a hint who to vote for...
Man, how can you not vote Republican under these conditions?
We retired after 28 years in the Air Force to rural Virginia. We voted here for the first time this morning. At 10 a.m. we were number #56 and #57 of the day. And after voting we went downstairs and had a wonderful home-cooked breakfast, even though we had already eaten. I was warned we were moving to a very Republican area but the signs in front of the polling place were all Democratic. Now we just sit and wait and pray that it does indeed all end in the next 24 hours.
I didn't think polling places were allowed to have campaign signs within a certain radius?
If u vote for Romney come on in. Obama? it's n the outhouse outback.
It IS nice in case you forget your ID when all the poll workers know exactly who you are, because they know you and your parents and your grandparents and all and sundry assorted relatives... and everything about all of them...
ah the small town thing.
We vote at our neighbor's garage and I live in Oakland, CA... far from rural.
I just notice doc holidays not a member of any group thats nice especially with his comments! Maybe you meant it to be funny didn't find it funny... even thou we are entitled to free speech. Aren't you glad we still have that.
Well so much for free speech.....
I fought in Nam and others in Iraq for the right of an individual to vote and to be able to express themselves without divisive and biggotry comments and threats from jack asses. Seems there are still those kinds of folks in this country and these comments like, "he is not an American like me", will cost the republicans this election. This is America: not white America. We are all in the same boat and unless you have millions in the bank or in the Caymans, we all need to work together to make this country better for all with the same rules for all.
