 Yesterday was one of my 2 days to work the early voting center. This was my view most of the day. We had a grand total of 20 voters! I was not surprised. Primaries are always low attendance and the positions being selected are Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General so most people just don't care. This is just for the Democratic candidates. We did beat Wednesday which clocked 18 voters.  I didn't waste time though. I read my new Gluten-Free Sourdough cookbook and read some in a new novel.  I also listened to my audiobook while adding about 6" to the length of my scarf. It was a productive day, all in all.
Today I'm dyeing the fabric for my Eclipse quilt and making some sourdough. I haven't had any bread in over a week.

we had some local issues up for vote at the beginning of the month that I went to vote and there was barely anyone there- later it was said that only 1% of the county population voted - they really need a new jail built here and it was on the ballot for a special tax - of course it failed because no one showed up and then people wonder why they are letting everyone go back on the streets that didn't do a really violent crime

I am glad you were able to be productive while doing a necessary but boring job. 5/31/2025 12:22:29 am
That's pretty typical of the primary voting days here too. Also some people vote by mail so that takes down the number that normally would drive to a polling place. It's a good thing they don't mind that you bring something to do.

Sounds like another case of the apathy that voters seem to feel these days. Leave a Reply. |
