Uh.. you like my backwards photo..

This year we had 6 voters and 2 first time voters.  The Man and #2 were out of town last week, so they voted early.  I piled the children and voters in the car and headed to our local one room school house.

There is #5 (nv), #3 (v), #1(pv) #3.5 (v), #6 (nv) and #4 (nv)

NV= non voter  V= Voter  PV= Professional Voter

It was #3 and #3.5’s first time to vote.

Casting their vote.

My Civic Duty…

american flag, one room school house

Just in case you've been living in a hole… It's Election Day! I've talked about where I vote before, but I thought I'd share the quaint one room school house that is my polling place.

This is the Briles School House… not only where I vote.. but also where I had my wedding reception.

I asked how busy it was today.. they said there were people waiting outside at 6:30AM. When I arrived at 4:30 the place was pretty much dead.

We did receive snappy new voting boothes this year. In years past we had these cool boothes with fabric closures on the back. They looked pretty old school. The ladies working were not crazy about these new booths.

I was surprised how FULL our ballots were this year. They were FRONT and BACK full.. top to bottom.

The GREAT SEAL of KANSAS…

I took photos the whole time I was there. I had a woman look at me like I was nuts.. so I explained to her that I blog. She muttered "Who would want to read about what she does all day?" I just smiled and thought.. "WHO WOULD want to read about what I do all day!"

Hey guess what… I voted 🙂 and I hope you did too!
