and there was already a line out the door. Busiest Ive ever seen it and Ive been voting at MLK for years. Its a well-oiled machine, though, and the neighborhood association gave me free coffee.

they were out at 8:30!
I've only been voting there for four years, but it was the busiest I've ever seen it. And, as you say, it ran very smoothly.
