I was home making sure my Dad didn’t do anything daft. Well, dafter than he’d already done. Besides, as much as I wanted to see Obama take NY, I was pretty bummed thinking about the state gov’t. Too many incumbents were going back to Albany, and even though the State Senate is going to be with a Democratic Party majority, I have huge doubts that anything significant will change with the legislature. > [@](#): > > My voting was fast and easy once I got my court order. At first they couldn’t find my name; but I went to the democratic offices and they got me a court order, pronto. I’m glad you could get things straightened out. And sorry (and pissed) that you had to go through that step to get to vote. > [@](#): > > My daughter loved being in the booth with me, and closing the curtain with the big metal arm, but I had to let her know that actually pulling the lever for Obama was my job, and by golly, she wasn’t going to snatch it from me! Meaniehead! 😃 Still, I’m glad she got to see the booths this last time. I like 'em. I’m going to miss them. (I know why we can’t keep them, and understand the reasons.
