I miss the machine with the big arm that you had to pull. It was an enjoyable experience to go vote.

I looked forward to it for so long after going with my mom to vote since I could walk. The curtain and the arm and sounds, that was all a part of the voting experience. I miss it. Going to just the mail takes everything else away too. It'll be like filling out a survey for a company and not choosing our leaders.
