Just voted in Tampa

Not a whole lot of people at the site voting, literally me and five other people, so I expect the amount of votes tallied to be very low. I started off on my journey to find which candidate that I would vote for as undecided, torn between four candidates. Joe Biden wasn't in my top candidates, but as candidates began to drop out, I weighed the pros of Biden and Sanders, the two things that swayed me towards Joe were that 1) I want someone that Independents will support, and 2) the actions of Sanders supporters really turned me off, in particular how they treated Warren, but also the general nastiness towards anyone that didn't support Bernie.. Thus today I backed Joe, and I hope that the party can now unite behind him.

April 28. My husband and I both work at the polls. Yesterday we received a letter from the county election board regarding training. Things are changing so rapidly that I’ll bet our primary date is postponed.

My wife and I got to the polls an hour after they opened and we were the 6th and 7th voters. We were the only ones there, other than the poll workers. That was at the very beginning of people waking up to the virus scare, so it was probably as much apathy as caution. It is my bet that very few voters are going to decide the Fl. primary.
