It’s Super Tuesday America-Did you get your “I Voted” Sticker?
I’ve noticed the last couple of times I’ve gone to the polls it has taken a lot longer to actually reach the voting machine. The technology is great. The voting machine makes actually voting much quicker and easier. I noticed today, though, when you start in line where they check your name and precinct and have you sign they are doing it using a computer instead of reading from a handwritten precinct book. You would think this would be faster—but this is where technology, training and age have not caught up with each other. We have some wonderful volunteers in our community. I’m sure some of them have been helping with elections since I was young and it is a thankless job. God bless the election volunteers. I just don’t think they are all ready to work on computers. It was faster with the handwritten precinct books. Sometimes technology isn’t all that helpful.
