Voted today; no one looked over my shoulder at my little booth at Marsh. Wasn't too crowded, and everything went fine. Don't know where the paranoia comes from but everyone in the room was super nice. I was joking with them when they handed me the big ballot cover/folder. "Are these the answers?" They probably heard better one-liners. :duck:

I remember when you only had one day(election day) to vote. The lines were infinite and you could be standing in bad weather for many hours, perhaps all morning or afternoon. When you have a spouse that cannot stand for long periods, early voting is nice. It is really nice when you can walk in and have no line or a small waiting line. I also like the paper ballot because I know that there is a record that a machine won't be able to "mistakenly" mess up. You won't hit a button for one candidate and end up voting for another. It may not happen often, but since it does happen, the paper ballot is nice insurance.

Is anyone else getting this ad on their TOTV site?
It is a phot of an attractive young woman, low cut shirt, with the caption "Do you dare?". I am trying to figure out what it is advertising. Do I dare? Curious but not curious enough where I risk having Ukranian bride ads on netflix while we watch TV.

I agree, it is nice. This is especially true as we did not get off for election day. I think a week is more than enough time however.

Voted today no line at 1 pm , I come from a long line of Boston Irish Catholics who would think it’s a sin not to vote on Election Day.

I heard on a news report that Sumter County had a very high percentage of votes cast % by county population.

Way to go The Villages people!
