Как быстро опция голосования по почте мутировала в практическую невозможность голосования лично. Ну что вы, никаких злоупотреблений!

In-person voting was quite an experience. I got the information about the polling station on the Internet. The location stated was California State University, East Bay, in Hayward. It was hard to find the polling booth. There are several buildings on the campus. The polling booth was part of the Students' Union. When I asked for directions, no one around seemed to know. Most know about the ballot boxes but not the in-person polling booth. There were no pointers outside. After much effort, I found one person who had noticed it, and he provided specific directions and mentioned a restaurant, a bank, and a bookstore adjacent to it. Only, it was two staircases down. When I eventually entered the polling station, it turned out to be a large office with five administrators inside. I learned that I was the only person who visited the office in four days!!

After I made it clear that I wanted a paper ballot and refused a screen, the ballot was printed for me! I was told to wait for 10 minutes because the administrators wanted to make sure they had enough ink!!
