Sophie the Election Clerk

Did you wonder what Sophie was up to today?  Well, now you know!


To work an election, you have to get up early...
....like around 4-4:30 so you can drive to the polling place, and arrive at 6-6:15 am. =)
And you have to be there early to set things up. (Note to self: lock the door til' 7am, other wise you have to throw the Way-too-early-birds out...)



(Clerks don't need to study this handbook, but Sophie thought that she would look smarter if she had her picture taken with it.)




 Sophie was having a sign-wave, but when you are only 7" tall, it's just too scary to stand by a highway in the wind for very long!


 Good clerks get to take a nap after lunch. IF their Mom is the Election Judge. =)


We had a whopping 60% voter turnout (172), and Adrienne wrote down nearly all the names & numbers...Good thing that Mom helped me sometimes, 'cause Sophie just watched.

 

And we all told the voters "Thank you, have a nice day!"

Livy and I looked at the pictures together and to say she was delighted would be an understatement. :)
