Duty done

I did my first civic duty yesterday and voted in my first election. It was really fun. We went in to the voting place (which doubles as my future elementary school), told these ladies at the check-in table our name (it's on the honor system) and off we went with our ballot to this little booth. It is just like drawing at school. You just color in a bunch of black circles all over the paper. It would be more fun if they have different color pens, like yellow, my favorite color. Then we took our ballot to this machine and it ate it up really fast. I'm told you usually get a sticker as a thank you for voting, but they ran out of them. Oh well, next time.

The machine ate my
ballot before we could
snap the photo. :(
