Short Lines at Abingdon Elementary

Just got back from voting and in our precinct (gym side) at Abingdon Elementary we zoomed right through. There is a line on the cafeteria side, but not too long. It seems like they had maybe a few more voting machines. Definitely more volunteers, and no offense to previous volunteers, but younger volunteers. I noticed that the voters also skewed younger, at least when we were there.
If you're going to vote, the back parking lot on Singer Road was completely empty. You can't get in the side door, but it's just a short walk around to the front.
The touch screen worked well, but we still do not like the lack of a paper trail. If you have a voting experience you'd like to share, please do.
Also, if you vote and get your little voting sticker, it entitles you to a free coffee at Starbucks or an ice cream at Chik-Fil-A.

I too was at Abingdon, piece of cake! It was great to have such an easy experience hopefully people didn't stay away because of line anxiety.
