In Franklin County, IL. Nobody is at the polls. I voted early and was the only one there. And this is rural Illinois...people usually vote early.

6AM, and I just voted for @BernieSanders in the #IllinoisPrimary.
However, let's be blunt. @JBPritzker and the State of Illinois is participating in voter suppression! Nobody should be voting today. My mom, who has waited 4 years to vote #Bernie2020 is afraid to vote! Shame!

I voted in a northern Illinois town and I voted at 6:20am and practiced distancing with my long arms. I was the 21st voter. All volunteers were older. Many had gloves and some had masks. Due to the pens shared, I used sanitizer when I got back in my car before I drove to work
My vote took 1 min. Literally nobody was there. I’m in south Fl

I guess staying 6 feet away from other people won’t be a problem.

TSA said an eighth passenger screening officer who worked this morning has been confirmed to have the coronavirus.
The officer is based at the Cleveland Hopkins International Airport and was on a 4a to noon shift.
