i'm a real american
that's right, I voted for the first time EVER this morning. it's such a great microcosm of american society at the polls...you've got two lines, everyone is only in one line until they find out there's another, a bunch of people get in that other line only to find out that it's for another district and that they need to go back to the first line they were in. Someone informs the election volunteers, one of them tries to help by getting some paper to put up signs. Then the volunteers tell him that there's already signs out there, so he doesn't put anything up.
I never saw the signs. Neither did anyone else, so they obviously needed to be more...uh...obvious. But the people in charge thought that what was out there was good enough, so the confusion continued. I'm sure at some point the public opinion will be that they need better signs.
And I'm hoping that's the way this election turns out.
