\nMy 19-yr-old son is interested in this election. Yesterday was his first chance ever to vote, and he seized it. So doing, he mobilized my wife and me as well: he thinks it’s important to be heard.<\/p>\n
Around 6:30pm we drove a couple of miles away to the advance polling station. We joined a short line outside. Within two minutes we were asked first name and phone number for contact tracing purposes (voluntary to give it). Next, we were ushered in.<\/p>\n
I wondered, with Covid, if voting would be difficult – not at all. A friendly elections officer brought my wife and I where we needed to go. (We had voter cards; my son did not.) We were done, and ready to leave, in six minutes.<\/p>\n
