Republicans were supposed to vote today, right? That’s what I was telling people… 😛

I was in Logan Square part of Chicago, I went to vote 4pm. There was NO ONE in the place and went I went to put my counter in the ballot box, the number went from 88 to 89. So I’m assuming I was the 89th person to vote that day.

I guess it’s because most people in the area are immigrants (Mexican and Polish)
