#43

I pulled into the parking lot at 6:40am and walked into the church with a cute old man who told me he first voted for President Truman. We chatted in line, checked our names off the list to ensure we were in the right spot, and at 7:00 this morning, the voting began. At 7:10 I placed my ballot in the little booth, took my pen, and carefully and completely colored in the little oval for my candidate of choice. By 7:15 I had slid my ballot into the machine, stuck my "I voted" sticker on my shirt, and headed to work.

On this historic election day, I was #43 to vote.
