We have mail-in and ballot box voting. Our city hall ballot box is on one of my running routes, so last election I hung around it a bit each day, just to see if there was any action and to video if there was. All I saw were people walking and driving up and depositing their ballots.

If we had in-person voting I would volunteer as a poll watcher, but this was the best I could do. I just wanted to make sure some goon didn't show up and start hassling people, and if so, it was recorded.

Little small thing, but we all have to do what we can.
