...I voted!!

I was hoping election day wouldn't turn into an experience suited for a blog post, and to my surprise it didn't.  The process was very simple and straightforward.  I walked to my voting place, went to my assigned room, gave my ID and voters card, was given an envelope which I took behind a 3-fold display board, selected a piece of paper to put in it, and then placed it into a cardboard box with a slit in the middle and a menorah (the symbol of Israel) glued on the front.  In and out in five minutes!  Not so technologically advanced, but very simple and successful.  Oh an a national holiday with warm  (sandals) weather!

UPDATE:  It was an almost painless experience, except for the three phone calls I received within twenty minutes of each other around 5:00pm asking if I had voted yet or telling me to go vote.

UPDATE: And for a fourth one a bit after 7:00pm
