The honey and I took off work early today to go vote. While waiting in line for a machine, two women come up to the Wilco table. The one woman says “mom, I have to go get in the Travis County line but this is your line here since you live in Williamson”. She then explains to the staff that this is her mom’s first time ever voting. There was some hushed talking and the poll worker announces “We have a first-time voter!”
Let me tell y’all…the applause from the people in line, the cheers, the congrats expressed to this elderly voter, and the absolute joyous expression on her face warmed my heart. And I’m no mushball softy.
You go, random Nana! Get your vote on!
