At least we're not in Florida.

My election day adventure: I went to my polling place, I got my name checked on the list and got a ballot, I went in the little carrel and filled it out, I got my name checked on the exit list, I put my ballot in the optical scan machine, and I bought some cookies from the eighth-grade bake sale

Interestingly, the Election Commission is having a public meeting tonight at 8 PM. I wonder what they'll talk about...Hmmm....

Based on the Globe article it seems like the mistake was on the state's part and not Cambridge's. Not that it'd hurt to go to the city council about it. I do wish the Secretary of State's office had moved into the 90s by now - they really haven't computerized a lot of stuff yet from what I can tell.

Apart from the exit list (maybe we don't have those here?), that was exactly my election day experience. Including the cookies from the eighth-grade bake sale.
