Election Day. So here is my 
annual complaint post. I know, I know...they weren't always accurate, they weren't modern, they
 weren't efficient, the records weren't good enough, blah, blah, blah. 
But even after several years, I still miss you, lever voting machine, 
and feel nostalgic for the past. The click of the little 
levers...scanning the top for ballot initiatives...trying to write 
upside down during a write-in campaign...the turquoise curtain...the 
loud snap of the big red lever in the beginning and end. I will never get used to the scantron system, 
which always seems confusing and not private enough, and as a result, I 
now dislike voting. RIP, charming dinosaur :-(
