[Vision2020] Thanks!

[Paul Rumelhart]

Saundra,

Thanks for the numbers.  I was going to ask how this election compared 
to previous years.  I remember hearing a couple of people remark on how 
busy it was when I voted.  This is the first non-Presidential election 
year I think I've ever voted in.  Hopefully, there are more like me that 
are getting into the spirit of the thing.
