Morning voting in Fairmont, MN

[vakkotaur]

I got up an hour early to get to the polls nice and early. I got there a bit after I'd planned, about 10 minutes early. The hallway at the Knights of Columbus hall was already fairly crowded, but there was just enough room for a few more folks to wait inside. More were soon waiting in the entryway, and it wasn't much longer that the line ran outside.

At 7:00, things opened and the line shortened quite fast as it was dividing between four wards of two precincts each. Despite my being back in the line, I was the first to get to the place for my precinct and had no problems. When I'd finished, the room was fairly crowded, but there were no more lines in the hall. Also, there was a fair amount of traffic (well, by Fairmont standards) but not jammed up at all. I was out of the parking lot and driving back home by 7:15.

Okkay, time for another post, with a very different subject.
