I remember in the past, when not voting by mail, having to bring a premarked sample ballot with me to spend minimal time in the booth.
Women have been allowed to vote since 1920. It's been almost a century....Very glad I could vote, anyway. Women fought too long and too hard for me to just skip voting.
We do have cool stickers.

But they did not just pick on women. Just a bit earlier, poor white men were not allowed to vote. Back some more, and even Jews, Quakers, and Catholics were banned from the voting booths.
Most of the "I Voted" stickers are a generic flag or stars motif. I'm surprised someone approved a "Blue Dog" sticker. It's not a donkey or an elephant, but it's been used as a symbol for partisan politics.
seng: one of my co-w*rkers waited over 2 hours. (seng, we live in the same area.)
I'm a bit baffled by the early voting thing. I tried it once, and all I remember is waiting.

"Blue dog <name of a political party>" is a phrase I haven't heard in many years, but at one time it's partisan meaning was clear. No idea if Rodrigue was aware of that.What partisan politics? It's a very famous Louisiana artist's work (George Rodrigue), in the New Orleans Museum of Art, on JazzFest posters, sculptures all over town, depictions in the lobby of the Sheraton Hotel, on billboards, at my dentist's office, and so on. If it is partisan in any way, I have never heard anyone here ever say one thing about that. I have met people with extreme political leanings on both sides of the spectrum, who love the Blue Dog.
Dunno if I'll bother. Still not retired and would require getting to office late, or leaving early.

I can still remember a middle aged blonde lady in Illinois being interviewed on TV just before the 1960 election. She said Kennedy should not be elected, because then the Pope would run the country.
