I made it to the polls with 1-1/2 hours to spare. My final progress was impeded by a woman standing courageously in the rain right in front of the polling place. She asked if I would please vote for Virginia's marriage amendment, which says a man and a woman, etc.
As I see this as just another form of discrimination, I answered "No." Then I entered the polling place and inquired why she was being allowed to stand within so few feet of the door. I was given all sorts of lame excuses and mortified looks. Not wanting to stir up things any more than that since I do not believe she had any but negative effects because of her obvious infraction, I said no more.
Now, if only I had a TV, in a few moments I'd be a-hearing how Virginia is a-voting.
