“My daughter Phoebe & I just after voting for Barack Obama et al. in Farmington Hills, MI (Detroit suburbs). About 40 minutes wait, and were voter #182 @ 8:30. I let Phoebe fill in one of the down ticket ovals. She just turned 7 last week, so it’ll be 2024 before she can vote for real.”

“7 month old twins, Gabriel (in blue shirt) and Annabelle, outside a polling place on Chicago’s north side after their parents voted. No mystery on which way the family leans. The first presidential election in which Gabriel and Annabelle will be eligible to vote will be in 2032!”

My wife and I voted absentee since we thought we could be in the hospital, but here Claire is ready for the
returns.”
