Wordless Wednesday:
Son1 came into the booth with me. He asked to color one box, and I helped. He ran in between Hubby's booth and mine. He didn't listen when I told him to stand still. Soon enough I felt my curtain exposed again. "Who are you gonna vote for mayor, Mommy????!!!??" I ignored his persistence.
Outside, Hubby admitted he sent Son1 to ask me which candidate he should vote for mayor. There were no party affiliations next to the candidates because mayor is a non-partisan position in Hawaii. Needless to say he and I voted for different candidates. Hubby was so disappointed! I reassured him our votes canceled out one another.

So cool! I brought the keiki too...what a historic election!!
ReplyDeleteOur neighbors and their kids were at the polling station when we were. Their little 4 year old asked me who I was voting for right there in the middle of the room! At least he whispered :)
ReplyDeleteI see that your polling station opened an hour later and closed an hour earlier than the ones here in VA. That just adds to my thinking that thinks are more laid back where you are.

That's sweet. My hubby called me from the booth to ask me who I voted for for circuit judge....
ReplyDeleteLOL, that's cute!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great lookin' famimly!!
I took my girls along too. I think it was a good experience for them. Great pics. MY mother in law says the only reason she votes is to cancel out my father in laws vote. Too funny!
ReplyDeleteLOL LOL I love the canceling out of each others VOTES!!!! too funny! HMMMMM I hope YOU Birthed a Future Politician because THEY are SO CUTE they already have MY VOTE!
ReplyDeleteOK so now I am really leaving for Virginia. ON the Road in a little bit!
My boyfriend and I cancelled each other out too :) What great pics!
ReplyDeleteHappy WW!
LOL that is too funny. Sending the kids to do the dirty work. Hee hee. My hubby and I cancelled either other out too.
ReplyDeleteMy poor little boy was very disappointed when I took him to vote because he thought I was going to take him to a boat.
ReplyDeleteI remember going to vote with my mom when I was little. I don't remember being rambunctious or anything, but I'll bet my mom remembers how I acted! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat post and pictures. My wife and I voted the same . . . I always do what she says. LOL
ReplyDeleteThe hubby and I did the popular California mail in ballot.
ReplyDeleteI was reading a post, that you left, that mentioned you used to live in San Diego.
We recently moved from SD, last August. Of course, we miss it everyday. Living in Vegas, well, it's in it's own catogory.
Kudos for including the kidlets in the voting process.
While voting absentee from our living room, we weren't sure who to vote for "county commissioner of utilities". In Washington, that is a non-partisan office. We did the obvious: googled the candidates names. Neither candidate could be found by google!
ReplyDeleteYou're braver than I. We voted while the kids were at school.
ReplyDeleteJust couldn't imagine wrestling all 3 of them and keeping them from peering over the shoulders of other voters.
I like the idea of including them in the process, but I think I'll wait till they're older. :)
I was so afraid that I was going to look like an idiot because I'm new to CT and am not sure how the voting here works, but it was so much easier than I expected, thankfully.
ReplyDeleteIs it okay if I add you to my blog roll?
