MONDAY MUSINGS: THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM

MONDAY MUSINGS: I waited until after the lunch hour and walked right in to complete my early voting ballot. Painless. Just needed to hand over the ID and state one's name, address and birthdate. 

Pretty straight forward on the candidates and what surprised me were some libertarians running unopposed. Guess we need  representation from all of society. 

Sunday's paper had included an Arkansas Voter' Guide including options for obtaining absentee ballots, finding one's polling place, ballot measures. The sorry joke is it's not like the old days when everybody had a daily/ even just the Sunday edition of the newspaper.

 There was information about state and county candidates. If only those ballot issues could be so easy. Let me tell you that those extras like the casino, marijuana, and more taxation are such gobblygook one might think the people who worded them must have been on weed! I had read those issues were going to be removed but they were on the ballot.

Craziness. Well I did my duty, I voted and I hope you will too.
