Description of Pictures: I had requested a mail-in ballot but as it became clearer that Republicans were trying to steal the election, I thought it important to vote in person even though Maryland wasn't a toss-up state.
Same Event: Wait! There's more! Because I took too many pictures, photos from this event were divided among the following pages:

VOTING_201026_016.JPG: Early voting started on Monday in Maryland. Our lines were shorter than in many states for in-person voting. Originally, I was planning to just do the mail-in ballot but as the Republicans have been working overtime to steal this election (funny how the only voter fraud cases so far are Republican ones), I decided to vote in person.

Bigger photos? To save space on the server and because the modern camera images are so large, photos larger than 640x480 have not been loaded on this page. If you need the bigger sizes of selected photos, email me and I can email them back to you or I can re-load this page temporarily with the bigger versions restored.
2020 photos: Well, that was a year, wasn't it? The COVID-19 pandemic cut off most events here in DC after March 11 and then the BLM protests started followed by the child president trying to steal the election in November. Trump's handling of the pandemic has been a series of disastrous missteps and lies, encouraging his minions to not wear masks and increasing the deaths here. As the chant goes -- Hey, hey, POTUS-A; how many folks did you kill today?
Number of photos taken this year: about 246,000, the fewest number of photos I had taken in any year since 2007.
