There were some older Hispanic women there. The Spanish official asked them, and excuse my spelling errors as I am going on phonetics here, Que Partia?, Spanish for 'which party'. They looked at each other and said: La Hillary. She then said: you want a Democratic Party ballot. They agreed that if that was where Hillary was, that was what they wanted. They needed help with the punch machine, probably first time voters. They were excited and very happy.

Talked with the younger officials. As of 11 this morning, 130 voters had voted in my precinct. This was up from last time. Fewer than 10 Republican votes so far, heavily Democratic turnout. The neighborhood is mainly older white people, Hispanics, Armenians, Russians and Filipinos. Oddly, there were no signs in Armenian or Russian.

First I went to the place where I had voted last time. This one is a mess, in a gym at a community school. No signs or any indication that people vote here. Have to wander down a hallway, past a day care center, into the gym. Very hard to find. And staffed with clueless people. I gave my address. They said it wasn't here this time. I asked where to go, they had no clue. The map they had only covered part of the town. They had no idea of how to find out where to go. Had to go dig my voter manual out of the trash.

Voted against all the initiatives, on general principals. Very nice day to vote. The Democrats working there were very cheerful and upbeat. Didn't seem to be any Republicans. All the poll workers live in the neighborhood.

Just wanted to share an anecdote, something I saw today.
