Just voted for HILLARY. I was the 51st voter since polls were opened

about an hour ago. Typical low turnout for primary in my town. Two other voters who came in about the same time were both women about my age (60). A lot of people have already voted here in California. I didn't see any "passionate" young people who got up out of bed early to vote for Bernie.

Standing in a crowd and cheering is easy. Getting up early or putting off more pleasant things to perform a task that is not exciting requires commitment.

but she blew it off.

It's her first time. I hope she does go and vote later today.
