I just had to see how it was going to work. Yesterday was the first day of early voting for our primary. I'll be gone on election day. Nothing going on in the Democratic races - no surprise. Big last gasp for the few moderates left in the Republican races. The obits. for the last of the Republican moderates are about to be written. VERY SCARY even here! (We have schools to worry about, and WORRY I do!)
As I said above, I just had to see how the new pointless photo ID restrictions were to be enforced. Well, "enforcement" be thy name. I also brought my "golden ticket" to be on the safe side, but they just wanted to see that drivers license. One person looked it over, without looking at me, and handed it to another person who also didn't look at me ------ just handed it back to person number one while I scowled.
While being escorted to a voting machine, I mentioned that I had considered also bringing my birth certificate. My escort, an older gentleman, (clearly, my age,) didn't read my tone, as he replied, "Oh, people just make too much of such things --- all they need is a drivers license." I responded, "Yes, yes, exactly!"
