1. I will be gladly driving some 15 miles to my township hall to vote tomorrow.

This will be the last time I do that. It is on the opposite side of the township and due to the intervening national forest I have to drive a circuitous route on what few paved roads there are here.

I will shortly be asking to be put on the absentee ballot list. I qualify because of my age, but more importantly the drive with a 20+ year old vehicle cannot guarantee that I will not be disenfranchised if I have a break down on the way. Plus, there's my somewhat fragile health at my age.

Go Bernie! Go Democrats!
