Waiting to cast votes

Ann Bryant/Sun Journal

Farmington voters gather outside the Community Building shortly before 9 a.m. waiting for polls to open on Tuesday. The line inside the building was about as long as the one outside. By mid-afternoon, just over 1,200 votes had been cast including 750 absentee ballots, Town Clerk Leanne Pinkham said. The number of absentees is high for an off-election year. The town processes about 2,400 during presidential and gubernatorial elections. "I think question one is bringing voters out," she said.
