Primary **and** Caucus

I live in a strange state to be a democrat.

Apparently the powers that be in this fine state are even more indecisive than I am. Somewhere along the line they were unable to decide whether we should have a primary or a caucus. So, yep you guessed it, we have both.

I can almost see some old guy throwing up his arms and saying, "Let's have one of each, y'all!"

The Knight and I voted this morning, and let me tell you! he was the hit of the retirement community! He smiled, batted his long, long blond eyelashes, played coy, and was on his "A" game for being cute. It was quite nice to be able to vote when I wanted to vote and to not have to bug DadOf3 to come home and watch the kids while I went. That said, there is no way I would have taken 2 kids to vote. Too many things to get into.

Of course there was a glitch when I went in to vote. They took my license and when they scanned it, their handy dandy (too many Blues Clues episodes) computer said that I had already voted - which I had not. The only way to correct this little problem was to reboot the computer. We all know how long that takes. So the line that was only 10 people long when I arrived grew to 15-20 people when I left. And yes they glared at my son and me as we walked out - assuming we had cause the delay. Either that or they were just grumpy and not really happy to be there. The polling people are going to have a long day.

I am also going to caucus tonight. DadOf3 and I cannot both go because someone has to watch the kids, and he said that he would rather not go so I am going. I am hoping to have Princess get her homework done before I have to go. Then DadOf3 only has to manage bath time.

I will write all about how to caucus tomorrow!
