The line was 15 minutes long. It impressed me that people were definitely making the effort to vote. Despite the fact that we're a rather predicatable state, there are a few important questions on the ballot: state income tax, marijuana penalties, and greyhound racing. Election day is exciting! I can't wait for the outcome, although I don't think I can stay up that late. What surprised me, though, was that Massachusetts votes on paper while Texas votes on computers! (Go Texas!) Up here you fill in the box with a pen. This is nice in that we as a nation can put those "no child left behind" skills to work. Well, now off for my free Starbucks!
