Trump became president. It was so crowded at the polling place. When we first got there, the line was out the door! And it was a cold night. Luckily someone came outside a few minutes later and said that if our last name started after the letter N, we could come into a different line. So we got to go inside. Since we moved since voting in primaries, they wanted us to show proof of new address, even though we had already mailed it. We waited in about 4 different lines and it took over an hour all together. I was a little bit frustrated because I had tried to prepare in advance for the other things that we would be voting for, but Google had not prepared me for the different items on the ticket. They had long since run out of "I voted" stickers, so after we voted there was a lady that would announce our names and that we voted. For me, she said "Erika Pickens has voted!" Anyway, it was an eventful evening! It was exciting to see how close the margins were, and made me feel like every vote really does matter perhaps.
