Just voted in Michigan

Straight Democratic ticket, of course, even though that meant filling in little squares next to EVERY Democrats name because Michigan has no 'Straight Party Line Ticket' option. Yes on legalization of marijuana, yes on ending gerrymandering and yes on making it EASIER to vote. That proposal opens absentee to everyone and returns the option to easily vote a straight party line.

The precinct had a stead flow of people (I voted at 9 am). Now to try and get through the day without slipping down the anxiety slope.

Good lines down here in SE Mich. I had to wait about 45 min. Usually for midterms its 10 min tops, if at all.

The wait was even longer than 2016.
