I find this kind of sad. I remember working at my old school on election day with the community coming in. Was a great learning opportunity for my students. Of course then Oregon went to vote by mail... I hate vote by mail... I always liked going to the polling place. Now I fill it out my ballot at my kitchen table... not the same...
“In a post-Columbine, post-9/11 world, we shouldn’t be opening the doors at our schools on Election Day, and just hoping everything will be O.K.”
