You're gonna be bothered by how cool I am.

Just today, I was trying to explain, in VERY general terms to my five/six-year old students, the basics of slavery, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, senators, lawyers, and voting. *whew* I congratulate you on tackling this entry. :)

I'm not feeling so well (what else is new) so I just had time to skim, sorry. I know you mentioned that there were different ways to cast your vote so you're covered but I didn't want to be left out. :p I suck at Googling but these pictures are basically what we still use in NY, at least where I live. The close up of the second picture is what the levers we use look like but the overall booth is similar to the first pic. After you vote by lowering the levers which correspond with your choices, you pull that big red one which simultaneously casts your vote and opens the curtain, *whee*. ;)
