Voting in San Francisco
Posted in san francisco, politics, voting on June 7th, 2006 by ballewWhen I walked into my polling place at 1845 Ellis St, I thought there would be a line at the door to vote in this year’s primary election. There were issues to vote on, important ones, like eviction notification, the transbay terminal, and a reduction in city violence.
When I voted at 5:50pm tonight, there had only been 125 people before me. In the great city of San Francisco, in Western Addition / Lower Pacific Heights, there were only 125 people interested in city politics? I can only hope there are tons of absentee ballots out there, or the voter rush was between 6pm and 8pm.
