Interesting voting today

copying my message about today's voting in Sarasota Florida. Apparently the news media are only interested in strange and unusual things happening in the voting setting. This was my reality:

OK friends. FYI: I voted today in Sarasota County Florida. In prior years, I have usually completed mail-in ballot in their very professional system. This year, because I was in process of moving, I had to do local ballot.
Since I haven't done a walk-in for voting here in a very long time, I am sharing this opinion.
1. If you are legal voting age and residence, you are hopefully voting in your method of choice. It is not only our right, it is a genuine privilege of this country. Don't ignore it.
2. At this site, highly professional behavior was all I saw both inside and outside of the voting address (one of the local schools). Meaning professional: (1) very professional for the individuals processing the voting process within the voting location. careful appreciation for their professional duties not their personal feelings.
3. Outside the school location, a tent on one side for the Republican representatives and another tent on the other side for the Democrat representatives. Equally personal and professional behavior among each of the persons and signs at their sites.
4.Our rights, our choices. I hope all of you have the same experience with your voting experience if you vote locally . Our ancestors had a wonderful plan with a proud US Constitution and how "we the people" manage it. Join me, regardless of your personal choices.
