That was easy…
I was prepared for a nightmare at the polls this morning. I’d already set a rule for myself- if I have to stand in line for more than 30 minutes I’m not voting. So I was pretty suprised when I got there and there were only two people waiting in line at my precinct. Easy as pie. I was in and out in under 5 minutes. You have no excuses people, get out there and vote!

Yep. About 90 seconds was all it took early this morning. And, going by the voting place at the Magazine St fire station at 2:30pm, it doesn’t look much busier.
Smooth sailing at St. Dominic’s, and there were a lot of people.
I’m keeping up with the elections from afar (Tallahassee, Florida specifically) and as I type this the Times-Picayune is showing that with 400 of 442 precincts reporting Ray Nagin is in the lead. Wow. I didn’t think he had much of a chance. I’ll look up the final announced results in the morning. I’m also curious how my favorite candidate (at least in terms of amusement) Kimberly Williamson Butler did after all of her shenanigans (some of which I had to write up on my own blog).
Well it looks like you have a tough choice to make in May. Nagin (with all the chocolate city stuff) or Landrieu (with all the history of family).
Good Luck.
30 minutes and you would have left? Yet another display of this city’s unfortunate lack of civic duty.
