Yes, and why not allow museums to use their establishments for
voting centers? We can serve cookies and punch, and use it
as a "special event."
Was everyone satisfied with that great television affair last
night? Bill won -- but those issues in many states was the
most interesting aspect of the evening (every issue from
bear trapping to property taxes).
p.s. I think canidates have no right to take over a museum
as first described in this post, however, if it is city property
and the powers that be allow it -- what can you do?
I guess that is when you serve cookies.
