Dedicated voters

Wow, it’s really going to take some effort for less-than-passionate voters to brave the weather today and get themselves to the polls. It’s terrible out there!

Some folks though aren’t letting anything stop them. This morning, in the pouring rain, I saw an older woman at my polling location — she was clearly having a difficult time walking, moving very slowly as she made her way, in the pouring rain, towards the doorway of the building where she would vote. A more able-bodied person would have been rushing to get indoors — but she couldn’t rush. I have no idea which candidates got her vote, but let’s hope they deserve it. This is one dedicated voter who deserves the service of those she’s helping to vote into office

    How is it that Boston election commissioners are election department
    employees?… shouldn’t election commissioners be separate as a
    board from the department?..

    Why have not all Boston election commission seats been appointed?…
    a commission seat has gone unfilled for a very long time.

    Board of Election
    1. Geraldine M. Cuddyer, Chair
    2. Michael Patrck Chinetti
    3. Nancy D. Hairston
    4. …. UNAPPOINTED ….
