There was no one in line at this polling place at 9:15 this morning. I couldn’t find my Sam’s Club card, so I presented my voter registration certificate. My ballot was No. 127. I noticed that in every single contested race, the Republican was listed first. (I always thought the person listed first has an advantage, so this must be decided by a coin flip or something. Not that I’m complaining.) The poll worker said there are 1,103 voters in the precinct, and 33 percent of them voted early, down a little from 2008’s pace. Now for the important part: If you get out and vote, you’re entitled to a free order of chips and guacamole today from Taco Bueno. ¡Hurra por el proceso democrático!
