It rained in some places today, and it snowed in other parts, but people still got out to vote.

Voter Craig Vincent said, "I think this is an important election, and I was going to come rain or shine."

Another voter, Britney Keen, said, "I think it's important to get your vote in regardless. [You can't complain if you don't vote." When asked if she would have stayed home if it was snowing, Keen replied, "No, not at all. I would have come out today regardless."
