Case you've been under a rock, or if
you're just brain dead, there's an election tomorrow. Sooo, it's that
time again as I contact the county's main main in the election commission,
Cliff Rodgers. Or rather, he contacts the media through one of his
many spin releases.
The guy is on a roll, folks. Anyhoo,
Rodgers has some election tips for those who missed early voting and
do plan to hit the ballot box tomorrow.
“On election day, you're required to
vote in the precinct where you live,” he said. “Our early
locations are closed on election day. Don't show up and try to vote
at Downtown West!”
Heh. Good stuff. Oh yeah, by the way,
the polls are open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
If you're not really sure about your
polling place, then click right smack here where you will find the
link “Where do I vote.” Enter your name, address, etc. to find
your location.
Don't forget your ID. Cause, you know, the new rule is there to prevent you from voting. Heh. Also, vote early and
often. (Cliff really didn't say that. His right and man, Scott Frith,
did. Kidding, of course. Not really. Maybe. You'll never know.)
Do expect moderate to heavy lines,
especially in the morning and evening. If you're in line at8 p.m.,
you can still vote, but come on, don't be THAT person.
The election commission won't release
any results until everyone in line has vote, so that might not be
until after 9 p.m. Seriously, don't call. Just go to the website and
hit refresh every few seconds.
Rodgers said he expects about 50,000 to
70,000 voters tomorrow, so be patients with the folks at the ballots
and if you have any questions or problems, then call. (Look up the
number on your own – I'm not the white pages.)
