The reappearance of Leigh Bordley’s campaign signs, this time with a sticker announcing the runoff dates, reminds me that we will vote again for Durham School Board on June 24th (the other candidate is Jonathan R. Alston). There are also absentee ballot and one-stop voting dates listed at the Board of Elections site.

I expected to see that very few people had voted in my precinct, because, as usual, there were no lines. The time from address verification to “I Voted” sticker was maybe 3 minutes. But looking at the counts and results this morning, I see that 45%+ of my neighbors voted. Nice turnout, and nice job with keeping people moving through the process!

Adults, don’t forget to vote! Precinct Locator

(No, that’s not a directive; We Love Durham is not going political.) This morning on the trip to Raleigh, we saw hand-stenciled signs with simply “Google Ron Paul.” They were at exit ramps, hanging off overpasses, and eye-catchingly planted beside a crash memorial cross. North Carolina is not a swing state; North Carolinians–despite Durham and Chapel Hill–are expected to vote in the party they always do, and so you don’t hear a lot of commercials or see a lot of yard signs and bumper stickers, even though we have a home-boy running for president. It’s nice to see someone cares! although I assume the signs are against ordinance and will be gone shortly.

All the bonds passed, most with a wide majority (save the museum bond, which was 60ish percent in favor). Congratulations infrastructure!
