Definitely a big change for this go around. Taking a look behind me, you may notice there are two voting machines. That is actually normal for a primary. They bring out fewer machines for these kinds of elections. No hiccups so far because of that number of machines. I spoke with a minutes at his weight was only 30 seconds.

In simpsonville, a couple says a polling volunteer made a mistake, allowing the husband to vote in place of his wife when an address change didnt go as she wont be allowed to cast her vote in this state because somebody didnt do their job, and on top of that, they didnt think it was a big deal. They were just like, its ok, you voted for her. Well, were not voting for the same candidate. I usually see more people at this time, but like i said, the directions are not clear. I mean, they need more signs out so people can really know where to go.
