Sounds like he was in lower Senate park. I'm supposed to be there right now but am on bereavement leave I'm glad you were far away and I'm also extremely relieved he was caught before he was able to hurt anyone.

CT ballots are so straightforward I keep thinking I must be missing something. After dealing with the craziness that is CA ballots, I don't know what to do with myself when I don't have to use a sample ballot beforehand. It is weird to go to a fill in ballot, I've only ever used voting machines prior during my voting career (CA had them by 2000 or at least my county did). It makes me feel like I'm taking a test. 😆

Also- I just realized that there are proposed amendments to the state constitution that until today not one of my local news sources covered. And the wording is confusing and most people won’t do their research so they will vote no and it’s actually something that in my opinion should be voted yes (it deals with caps on how much debt school districts can occur based on property values. Any district that has less than 125,000 people in its population has a different threshold than those that have more residents in their district) I made sure to look those up today. The wording is terrible. I suspect that'll throw the votes for sure.

The countdown is on, the polls close in just over 2 hrs!
I'm going to feed the kids soon and leave around 7pm to start collecting my signs from polling locations. I know there's supposed to be time, but I also don't want to fish any more out of dumpsters so I want to do it tonight. Hopefully it'll help keep me busy while I wait for results

I made a complaint to the department of elections about the right wing nut job running for my local city council. Call me Karen but he was wearing a campaign shirt INSIDE of a polling precinct 🤯

We just voted. I was surprised to see a line this late in the evening. I feel like there haven't been lines in similar elections in past years. It'll be interesting to see if there's a change in turnout.
The little one was quite jealous that she can't vote yet. And she was downright mad that she has to wait 12 more years until she can, lol.
