So I just voted...
Just a short diary, here.
I'm in Broward County in Florida.
I just voted at the Middle School down the road.
Paper ballot, filled in choices with a pen in the tiny circle, fed them through the monster machine.
Have to say that at 1:45pm, at least in my polling place, barely anyone there, but poll workers said it was very busy in the morning. Maybe six people when I showed up. Tiny trickle. Cars pulling in and out sporadically.
One of the poll workers asked me how I was. I answered, "I'll know better tonight..."
Her response: "I hear you."
Voted for Alex Sink for Governor, and proudly.
As for the Meek vs. Crist dilemma - I was torn - but ended up voting for Crist, with some trepidation. If anyone has a chance to beat Rubio (which, if that happened, at this point, would be a miracle on par with the loaves and fishes, thanks to the split Dem/indie vote between Crist and Meek), it would be Crist, so I wanted to bump up his margin. It was a tough choice, and I hesitated - but at this point, it came down to a vote for the person who would rack up a better margin against Rubio.
So my apologies, Kendrick.
I've been reading about incredible turn out in the urban areas across the U.S. - no idea WHO that turn out is yet, of course...
...we'll see.
Good luck to all of us.
If you haven't voted yet, please do so!
Thanks,
