Well that was fun. Bob Trane himself, wearing a black suit, greeted me in Teele Square on the way to vote. Sciortino had people with stickers on every corner in the square. Trane's mother voted standing right next to me (I didn't peak over the divider but I'm pretty sure who she voted for).

After voting I went to Magnificent Muffin. Bob actually followed me in there. He was kind enough not to ask me who I voted for. The woman behind the counter told him that according to what she'd been hearing in Somerville, he had nothing to worry about.

Go Kerry!

I was 4th to vote at my polling place. Everyone in line (my polling place was rinning 5 minutes late) with the exception of one person, had Carl stickers in-hand. I wish local elections had breaking news/updates throughout the day like national ones.

CRAP! I knew I forgot to do something this morning. At least my boss will be friendly; he's late to work today so he can get his vote in.

Heh, that's the first time I've ever voted with a sticker before. Interesting place this Somerville. :-)

I'd love to, but apparently there's nothing for me to vote for. I'm registered as a Green...

"Peak" vs. "peek"

Teele Square, I'm glad you didn't peak over the divider. You might have gotten yourself arrested! :)

Trane was still standing out in Teele Sq when I went by again at 10:30am. He looks decidedly less creepy in person. All his visibility people were old. All of Carl's people were young. A battle for the ages.

It wouldn't be the first time I was arrested for peeking. Nor my first typo at 7:30am.

Obama vs. McCain....only on a much less grand scale.
