Sailed through like a breeze..........
Having seen the enormous voter line-ups on TV, I decided to have my lunch first before heading out. (Turned out most places were closed in Santo Domingo, even restaurants that never seem to close) I figure I'd need some stamani and diversion so I packed a few magazines and a mini-FM radio, ready to stand in line for hours.
I couldn't have been more wrong. By the time I arrived at Colegio San Juan Bautista (right behind Bella Vista Mall) at 3pm, the electoral staff outnumbered voters. I located my "mesa", voted and left within 2 minutes.
I still have my inky right index finger that smells really weird, not to mention its dark purple-ish color makes it look like I had jammed my finger by car door.
As a naturalized DR citizen (since 1999), this is the very first time I exercised my voting rights. (I was in London on business during May/2000). Voting out His Baldness is the least I can do for a country I now call home.
Let's wait for the grand results !
