even in la bocana there was a line

not only that - they were supposed to OPEN for voting at 8 and they waited outside til 8 and then went in to set up. we were allowed to enter at almost 9. the line was nonexistant, it was a mishmash of people when they finally let us in.

I was number 1 in line to vote !! First time for me as a Mexican.

:biggrin:





Come visit La Bocana

Oh Wow Blanca...pretty neat eh to vote for the first time in your new country!

Things didnt get rolling here till around 10...we went early but there were way too many people and we had a date with a big beach today....but we made sure we were back in time to vote...No Line at all at 5:30...whew. Outstanding calm perfect beach day.

I am a bit aprehensive about the repercussions of a new government.
