(5,946 posts)but a quick look at the ballot and everyone was going to win by a landslide and I didn't disagree, so I stayed home and it went as predicted. One election for some weird reason I forgot it was election day and was in my seat at the opera when someone mentioned it to me, I could not make it home in time to vote, i.e. by 9 pm. other than that, rain or shine sick or well, I always vote,
although, like the primary, this years election is supposed to be a blow out, and I can't see it happening any other way, no surprises and my sister may be still in bed with a hip replacement, so, I might just be helping her. don't know yet, but this is not a close election by a mile, even the local stuff, the mayor is running unopposed - so no choice there. I used to drive people to the polls, but again, it does not seem necessary this year and, as I get older, I need no talking when I drive.
