ELECTION DAY

I voted yesterday, and if you follow me on twitter you know it was not the best experience.  Of course, it was totally worth it... but I'm still going to vent.  Unfortunately, my voting registration wasn't updated when I changed my last name and got a new license last year {even though it was supposed to}.  So... I had to vote with a provisional ballot.  There were only five volunteers working that line, to process the address / name changes and print our special ballots.  The provisional ballot line literally took twice as long as the regular line.  When I finally made it to one of the five people, I was handed a paper ballot and had to sit at a table right next to everyone else.  It was a bit uncomfortable to vote when the folks beside me could see what circles I was filling in, especially when two girls right beside me were talking loudly to each other about who they were voting for.  When all was said and done, and I walked out of the building two hours after walking in, all could have been made better with that little sticker they give you... but of course they were out.

Now, stop reading me whine and go vote!  {and someone grab an extra sticker, for me!}

I was searching for some election photos to share, and I came across these rare LIFE images from JFK's 1960 campaign.  You can see them all here.
