VOTE


I hope everyone exercised their right and duty to vote today! In AL the polls are open 7-7 so Ben had to go before work and was still running a little behind. He usually works late on Tuesdays so he knew he couldn't go afterward. (As a side note I really wish all states would have same voting times so it would be more feasible to vote as well as more fair. See in NY state you can vote from 6-9 so people there have more of a opportunity to vote than here. Anyways)
We arrived at the voting place...fire house... about 10 min before they opened. (Remember this is a little country voting precinct) We were 37 and 38 in line. By the time the doors opened there was more than 50. The line was about the same length when we walked out about 7:20.
We will see the outcome tonight. I am anxious and prayerful. God is still in control and always will be! He knows.

We are praying for our country also. We only had 1 other person at the voting place when our family and one lady from our church got there. We were in and out in a few minutes. Sr. Major

I agree. People in each state should have the same voting hours available to them. We're headed out after Andy gets back from walking. We'll see how the lines are then.
