Just returned from voting at District 5 (Riverside School). Scanners are not working and ballots are being collected into a bin. Based on whats happening now in Philly and Milwaukee, these ballots from a Republican district may not get scanned and counted.
I voted at the same place at 8:30 and the scanners were working fine. Only problem as I saw it was that the Libertarian's presidential candidate wasn't on the ballot. If I'd known his name I could have written it in but I'll confess I don't necessarily follow the party actively enough to know who they're running - they've always just served as a place to lodge a protest vote. I did care enough the first time I voted (1972) to find out their candidate's name in advance but since then they've had a place on the ballot. Not this year, so I had to content myself with cancelling the Greenwich Diva's vote, instead.
I am, after twenty years, a non-practicing lawyer and glad of it. I am the author of The New Millionaire's Handbook (Andrews/Mcmeal 2000, Greenwich Mean Time (2006) and several equally funny (he said) unpublished novels and screenplays. For the past six years or so I've been selling real estate in Greenwich, Ct and, while that wasn't exactly the career I envisioned when I was a starry-eyed law school graduate, it seems to pay the bills far better than lawyering ever did, with no stress. Good deal.
Mostly, you'll find information about Greenwich real estate in this blog but I do have other interests and, because I think what our politicians do can severely affect the economy and real estate values, I often jump the shark. If you don't want to see that ugly sight, please skip to a real estate entry.
Clicking on a picture often makes it larger but it depends on how large that picture started in its initial posting. Anything highlighted should be, and usually is, a link related to the article I'm talking about. Click it and see - it's sort of like an Easter egg hunt. My blogging skills are very much a work in progress.

Just keeping the folks informed.

Hahaha!
Wow I guess I missed that part of his platform!
