We enter into a tall white New England Town Hall built sometime in the mid-1800s (my house is 1846) and resting on the Town Green. The lady up front with the voter registration list marks me off before I even tell her my name, because she already knows it, dearie
We take a pencil and the paper ballot and go stand behind a wooden cubicle. There are 3. If you need more space (in case theres a crowd,) there are tables in the back.
This is the same place where Town Meeting is held the 2nd Tuesday of every March of the year.
Democracy in action: its a beautiful sight to behold! On this day, whatever the outcome, lets just be thankful.
If the people fail to vote, a government will be developed which is not their government
. The whole system of American Government rests on the ballot box. Unless citizens perform their duties there, such a system of government is doomed to failure. Calvin Coolidge
