During a mid-morning spin around Wellesley to see what I could see on Election Day 2020, what I saw was a whole lot of nothing offset by a sprinkling of candidate stardust.
That’s the way it goes when, according to the Elections Division of the Massachusetts Secretary of the Commonwealth, 2.2 million of the state’s 4.8 million registered voters, about 46%, have already voted in advance of the Tuesday election. With so many votes already cast via mail-in or absentee ballots, or through early voting, crowds and lines at the polls were nonexistent here in town. I had a hard time even finding sign holders.
Here are a few pics of voting day in Wellesley:

Hello, Mrs. Swellesley! I was working at the library polling place today and i remember checking you and your son in. I wish I had known it was you so I could tell you how much I enjoy your writing. Bravo to you and Mr. Swellesley!

Thanks for volunteering at the polls, and for your kind words above. I am impressed every time with how organized the polls are. Now we wait…
