The day begins

I woke up bright and early this morning without an alarm. I figured it was about time for the polls to open and I'd get an early start. I looked at my clock. It was 3:20AM. Very low turnout at my home precinct this morning. Nowhere near the amount of voters I would expect to see. Hopefully it's the cold. The people that are showing up to vote already know how they are going to vote. They keep their eyes downward trying to avoid the gauntlet of campaign volunteers pushing literature. I've seen a few of my neighbors, and I had two voters whom I don't recall meeting leave the poll and tell me they had voted for me. I hope that's a good sign. More later.
