Took the 7-Year-Old to vote this afternoon. Our firehouse was just as full today as it was in '04, which surprised me a bit -- there's not much at stake nationally in our district. Hinchey, Dem, anti-war, is unopposed, Hillary and Schpritzer are waltzing home. But high turnout here I'd have to imagine is bad news for our local wingnuts. Hell, the guy Hinchey originally beat for his seat had his vote split by Randall Freakin' Terry.
Wow.
The 7-Year-Old threw the lever on the old clunky NY voting machine, which may be retired after this year. And I let him flip the levers. He dug it. What a great kid.
