We live in Esmeralda County, Nevada, and last February got married in the first same-sex marriage ever recorded in this county. This is deep Trump country and we are joking that he and I cast the deciding votes for Biden right here.

The 113-year-old Esmeralda County Courthouse, where we got married in February, and where we cast our votes in person on October 17. Senator Catherine Cortez Masto has visited here a couple of times. This county is about 80% Trump supporters, but we handed the election to Biden in this building. Ha ha ha!
