62002: No Voting Issue

In line by 6 am and waited about 15 minutes. Was the 17th voter in my precinct and was out by 20 minutes. It was a very smooth process. Read More »

Best voter turnout by far than I have ever seen at a polling station. Very organized. Lines moved quickly. The demographics were varied on age, race, ethnicity.
