(With apologies to Gary Larsen, creator of the “Far Side” and the artist from whom the cartoon above was hijacked, probably without permission, and to West Palm Beach Dems…I submit the cartoon for your election-day amusement.)
I VOTED | Election-eve exchange
I voted this morning around 10:15 at Tramway Elementary with my wife, and the crowd was small. My precinct has changed. This was my first time voting at Tramway, and I really miss the days of voting at the American Legion, where you could always county on many candidates and supporters being there stumping during Election Day. Alas, there were just three stumpers at Tramway, one for Bill Tatum and two for Shawn Williams. Driving into work this morning I saw 15 or 20 at the American Legion. Maybe we’ll move. Nah, probably not…everyone at Tramway was very nice and the process was smooth.
I voted for Hillary Clinton today, which is something I never thought I’d do…but as a registered Democrat, I couldn’t vote for Ronald Reagan, so…
What follows is an actual exchange (tongue-in-cheek, of course, but real) I witnessed on Friday between people who voted early…it happened after one person reported the high number of early-voting Democrats and the very low number of early-voting Republicans to another person, who was talking about having to stand in line so long for last-minute early voting Friday at the Board of Elections…
Bystander (me): Can those numbers really be right – so few Republicans?
Early Voter #1: Yes. There have been reports of people having to stand in line for long periods. That would deter productive people from waiting in line during working hours with undesirables.
Early Voter #2: All the Republicans are voting Democrat to make them think they’re ahead.
OK, it was funny when I heard it…but not as funny as Larsen’s original cartoon, which had the sign saying “Midvale School for the Gifted.”
