Went and voted in the Super Tuesday Primary during my lunch break today. A friend of mine is the Election Judge for my polling station. I saw that the guy behind me was wearing a MAGA hat. I told her and she promptly made him remove his hat and take it to his car. This made me so happy. It's the small victories...
I have to admit that as I pulled into the parking lot I was slightly intimidated by all the last minute campaigners sitting among the hundreds of signs planted beyond the 100 foot radius they must be from the polling station entrance. I've voted many times and am strong of conviction. Even so, I always find such displays jarring. I think these signs need to be removed even further afield.
I voted for fellow Oklahoman, Elizabeth Warren. Pragmatically I should have voted for Biden. But I went with both my brain and heart. I'm sick of pragmatism. I'll vote for Bernie if he's the nominee. But I honestly don't think he has a chance against Trump. I'm also not impressed with his dogmatic, uncompromising view of doing politics. That's not how leadership works and that type of intransigence will spell disaster in Washington. I think Biden is too old and too cozy with the establishment.
Warren probably doesn't have a chance. But she got my vote.
