Jemima Votes…

…not that it matters. The outcome of every Massachusetts election for the next 100 years was determined back in 1963. Most of the seats on my ballot weren’t even contested. It would be much easier for all the Democrats in the city if we still used the old lever voting machines, where just one flip votes the party line. Instead, the devout had to fill in a bunch of little ovals. (I didn’t bother voting for uncontested seats.)

In subway news, the end of the B line has been shut down for two days now. At first I thought it was the usual—a Breda train derailment or fallen power lines, but those things don’t take two days to fix. It turns out that a long-neglected sinkhole near the B line suddenly expanded to the tracks yesterday. It must be deep if they’re still filling it in.
