Letter to the Editor: Hopkinton election well run

by | Nov 22, 2018 | Featured

I’d like to congratulate those responsible for the recent election arrangements at the high school. The signage and layout were clear enough that a total doofus couldn’t get lost, even if he didn’t know what precinct he/she was registered in. The only delay I encountered was the line at the precinct table where one of the staff got all the action while the other waited for a voter to show up with a street address in her book. I even offered to sell my house and move into her precinct to shorten the line, but she politely declined. In spite of this inconvenience I was in and out of there in less than 10 minutes. A job well done that deserves our collective thanks!

Richard Ernst, Hopkinton
