Voting In Person Today

Today, the polls will be open from 7 am until 8 pm. So long as you are in line when the polls close at 8 pm, you will be permitted to vote. 

To find out where you vote, just click here.

As a voter, you have the right to refuse to wear a mask. All pollworkers will be masked. There will be hand sanitizer available, and an effort will be made the clean the XL voting machine after each voter. 

Active electioneering is prohibited inside the polling place. Voters (not poll workers or poll watchers) may engage in passive electioneering, like wearing a MAGA hat or a Biden sweatshirt. 

Pollworkers must be strictly impartial. Our sole goal is to ensure that every person who is entitled to vote gets that right. 

Because of CDC guidelines and the Election Code, we will try to limit the number of people inside the polling precinct. I usually get people angry at me when I insist they leave after voting. I apologize. I am a political junkie, but not during an election. Also, experience has taught me that a group of voters who chat after voting will eventually turn to politics. Finally, we are trying to limit your exposure.  

If you received a ballot but have decided to vote in person, please bring your ballot, secrecy envelope and the exterior envelope that was sent to you. We will mark it spoiled and permit you to vote on the machine. If you are unable to locate it, you can go to the elections office and request another. But I'd suggest that you go to your precinct and tell the pollworkers what happened.While you will NOT be able to vote on the machine, you WILL be able to vote provisionally. Once it is determined that your mail-in ballot was never received, your provisional ballot will count. 

Any problems? Anything to report? Please note in the comments.

Place was packed? Are you Mr. Magoo? Saw the report on 69 News and it looked like maybe 50 people spaced out. Biggist disappointment was that Kamala didn't fall into the quarry.

No one should linger in the polling place after voting, and jawbone with workers or people standing in line. Get the hell out of the way. It isn't a convention. You were too stupid to vote by mail but you had a right to vote in person - don't make others suffer any more than they have to.

I'd like an extra helping of bigotry and ignorance today please. I have so had enough.

Radicals like Bernie are "working" the polls. This is going to be very dirty. A quick read of Bernie's posts for the last couple months, and it's easy to understand how desperate he and his ilk are.
