We CAN do it.

In Mac-Groveland (Howard's territory) the total votes at noon were 100.

Voted in Ramsey, against Orenstein. And I noted in both of the polling locations I went to (vote early, vote often!<B><sup>1</b></sup>) there was a "Ramsey Couny bans guns" sign. I pointed out to people at both locations (fire station and church) that the sign was unlawful, one said he would make a note of that to bring it up at the next meeting, the one at the church said (a little huffily) that I could call the Secretary of State if I had a problem with it. I think I irritated her when I corrected here mistaken assumption that churches were exempt from following the law.

So, would SecState be the one I complain to?

<B><sup>1</sup>:</b> They moved my location, I didn't vote twice.

Our family voted in Minneapolis the number was just over 250. Two vote for justice from our household, neither the cat nor the infant voted though. :wink:

They should have called MoveOn.org. They probably could have gotten a ride and a personal voucher if they promised to vote Democrat...

P.S. At Chanhassen #1, I was voter number 107 at 7:00pm.

Looks like our final total was 1188 (for four precincts). At least that's how many voted on the school levy, which we turned down yet again. I think this is the 8th time we rejected it in a row. That's got to be some sort of record.
