Disappointed.

 Another phone call, this time to inform me that the response from those of us that were asked to count votes was so positive, they had to call some of us to tell us that we won't be needed.

The hand counting process for which I was originally called to do was for ballots with write in votes.  The machine used to count ballots rejects the ones with write in votes.  So the rejected ones must be counted and documented by people.

I feel disappointed.

I was then asked if I wanted to volunteer at the local Democratic office.  This reminds me of how obvious the people I met that work at this office appeared to zone out, as if they didn't hear me when I stated quite bluntly, "I'm non-partisan."

I won't mind volunteering to answer phones.  If it helps voters to get to their proper polling place on time, or to help anybody that might have complaints, or questions, I don't mind.

I just want this to be a fair election.
