The line was out the door...
This morning like every morning, I took the bus to work.

This being Austin, it's a big university town.

One of the main stops on this particular bus line is on the "drag" right next to the university.

The stop also is located right in front of the university book store. Which is also a voting location.

The line was out the door.

In my many years of living here in Austin, I have never ever witnessed such a thing. In the '04 election, there was nary a person in site at the same location.

Things are different, change is coming today. :)

Peace.
