(153 posts)but living in a small city has some advantages. Our polling location houses three precincts, but our ballots are so simple that I merely have to color the ovals in next to each selection.
Voted all Dems and I live in a red area - you can tell when you get to the county board offices and realize you can vote for "seven" and there is only one Dem in the race (all of the others were Republicans).
People were both nice and helpful at the polling location - in fact, I was looking through my wallet for my voter ID cuz I couldn't remember what precinct number I was in. . .one lady at a precinct table just said "come over here and we'll check in ours, and if you aren't in this one, we'll send you over to the next one." At the second table, a man asked for my address and smiled and said "oh, you are with us. Here - just fill this address form out and we'll get you all set up." No muss, no fuss. . .they checked my sig and my address in the records and handed me a ballot.
