Today is Primary Election Day - when the parties elect candidates to run in the fall election. The elections today are state and local township officials, school board members, judges and some county officers. Not every state has an election today.
When I went to vote this morning, I saw one of my former students running for constable for our township.
This is where we vote - our township building which is in reality a big garage!
I had a nice visit with friends and neighbors who were working the polls in support of various candidates. Probably the hottest local race today is the school board race. Four people are running for two positions and there has been a GREAT DEAL of discussion about this for perhaps a year or more.
This was on the other side of the door toward the garage/polling place. I can remember the day when no one sent any signs, materials or people to our little polling place.
