1.  7:45 am
2. Three other people in ahead of me (this time my polling place handles two precincts, so that was new)
3.  Not sure; the had the new machines (looked like a copy machine) so I didn't hang around long and couldn't tell.
4. Nice try.   ;)

The number of ballots before you is in the upper left hand corner.  Lots of zeros before the actual number at the end.  I guess they prepared the machines just in case everyone in Oklahoma was shifted to one machine.

I was in at 8a.  Low turnout so far, but better than the school bond and Vision2 turnout.

Didn't catch my voter #, but was surprised to see quite a crowd at 91st and Delaware (Jenks East).  Line was about 20 people deep but moving very fast.  All booths full, but also moving very fast (not much on the ballot).

Did you vote absentee in Florida this time too?

Vote everywhere you have a homestead exemption.

7:03 am.  Place was packed even though the road is torn up and you can only access coming South.

Strangely the line for A-L was dead and the line M-Z was 10 deep when I showed up.

There were Taylor signs all over the neighborhood.  Guess it's a pocket full'o mid-towners.

I went in to vote at 4:45 this evening. Got up to the table and could not find my driver's license. I changed purses the other day and I guess everything didn't make the switch. So I showed them my work photo I.D. and other things with my name, then filled out four forms and was able to cast a provisional ballot.

But I am not complaining! I totally support having to show proper I.D. in order to vote.

How does a provisional ballot work anyway?

I think it goes in the trash unless it's really close.

#359 at about 4

Steady stream of people, but they said it was a recent rush. Mostly a Dewey kind of audience, but that's my neighborhood.

Voted at 6pm at the location where the Greek Festival is held. Toasty warm. Parking lot was full. Got the last space and expected to wait a long time but only four people including ourselves. Forgot to look at our numbers but my impression was slow yet steady.

Voted for all the propositions including the council. KT and Criswell.

I'm such a positive, progressive guy. My wife says I was against the council raises last week. Oh well.
onward...through the fog

5:30'ish at Berean Baptist Church.  #522 & #523.  It took me that long to make the rounds to all precincts today and cast some absentee ballots in other locales.

MC handed the poll worker her DL, the woman turned to the page, verified it was Mrs. C and not Mr. C.  MC pointed to me and my name right above hers and said "no, that one is my husband, this one is me".  MC gets her ballot. Woman takes my ID and promptly closes the registration book and goes to the "C" section where she could not find my name.  Um, that's because it's alphabetized by last name and you were just looking at it.

Probably a Dooey voter.

I voted for Taylor, whichever the first choice was for auditor and yes on the propositions.  I figure it's probably time to give raises to the council positions, considering it's been $18K- or close since the council style government was enacted.
