On the South Side...

Bob Burns, who's running for the 85th District house seat, talks to voters at Assumption in South St. Louis County this morning.

The St. Louis County Library at Tesson Ferry and Lindbergh was the scene of some excitement. The electronic voting machines were not working initially. There were reports that some people were told they could come back later, but if they already signed, it's not clear whether they would allowed to vote. While I was there, the paramedics showed up to tend to an ailing voter(after about 20 minutes the voter was able to leave on her own).

Opponents of Proposition P apparently hadn't planned on the rain. They made use of signs from a previous election.

This is what we like to call grassroots.
