It must be very exciting for Amra to be in the middle of all of this. Exciting times for everybody.
I'm dying to see how the story of the closed polling place ends. Who ordered it closed, and will there be an alternate site?
I was also impressed with the ballot system they use: The voter fingerprints a receipt at the top of the ballot. The poll workers tear off the part with the fingerprint and then hand the rest of it to the voter, along with an official stamp. The voter then privately marks the party of their choice and drops the ballot into a box. Finally, a line is drawn on the back of the voter's thumb in indelible ink to keep the voter from voting twice. It's secret, it's re-countable, and as long as the boxes aren't interfered with (or polling places aren't closed by the police), it's fair. We in the U.S. could learn from this.
