The best way to find out the answer to these questions would be to **read the freakin thread**.

My voting experience this morning was basically a duplicate of **Zoe** ’s. I didn’t take an “I Voted” sticker, though. They looked a bit cheesy.

Not a sign of a partisan thug anywhere. Of course, this was The Woodlands, TX, where you can’t throw a rock without hitting a Republican, and most of the local seats were uncontested, but still.
