My grandmother worked the polls for every election in her small town until she was physically unable to. I remember her going "off to the polls" when I was little and not really understanding what that meant but gathering that it was an exciting thing to be doing.
Election Day still feels like a holiday to me (more people would turn out to vote if it were!) so, I'm gearing up. Where I grew up in Massachusetts, everyone always went to the elementary school cafeteria to vote and if you forgot where to go you could ask anyone in town and they'd tell you - it's harder here in Brooklyn, fourth largest city (if it weren't a borough) in the U.S.
Which is why I checked out the New York City Board of Elections handy Poll Site Locator to find out where you go to vote on November 4th:
