Voting: No Sweat at Hexter Elementary, Starbucks and Krispy Kreme

By Dave Moore |

Arrived at Hexter Elementary in Old Lake Highlands at 8:10 a.m. to find about seven people stacked up at the “Names beginning with the letters A through L” table. I’m not sure if the M’s through Z’s are apathetic, but it sure made for an easy vote. About a half hour later, I waited about three minutes in line at the Starbucks at Caruth Haven and Greenville, where I ordered my free “voting” coffee. A few minutes later, there was no wait at all at the Krispy Kreme at Greenville and Lovers Lane, where I received my free “voting” doughnut (I chose the custard-filled chocolate iced variety). Does anyone know where I can get a free “voting” lunch? Maybe I could milk this for an entire day of free stuff.

VOTING SWAG UPDATE: The Cupcakery is rewarding North Texans who vote in the November 4 presidential election with a free patriotic cupcake for anyone who brings in their “I VOTED” sticker. Visit The Cupcakery at The Shops of Starwood in Frisco located at Lebanon and the Dallas North Tollway between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m. on November 4 while quantities last.
