Skankjam - paper ballot

Oy, the machine for the 12th 44th in 11215 is busted. Or was never unlocked this morning. Soooo, paper ballot, dropped into a cardboard box. On the plus side, the volunteers say they get counted as soon as the poll closes. By them.

In general, though, biggest line I've ever seen at our polling place: up to the Avenue and down the block. Ran into a number of neighbors. Happy day. R reports that in the elementary school she teaches in, the student straw poll went 95% Obama. The neighborhood parents are raising their kids nicely.
