West Seattle Election Day ’08: Morgan Junction, to The Junction

That’s one minute of video, three corners of Fauntleroy/California (sorry about the passing trucks), as fourth and fifth graders from Gatewood Elementary Schools “Team Earth Peeps” spent some time in the past hour waving signs to get out the vote. Go, kids, go! (Thanks to Gatewood teacher Darren Radu for letting us know!) (Added later) Here are a couple pix, too:

Earlier, WSB contributing photojournalist Christopher Boffoli roamed The Junction and sends these pix:

That’s Cupcake Royale in The Junction, giving away free “babycakes” in honor of Election Day. Next, voting at the Senior Center, where Christopher reports workers told him the “polling place has been very busy today. Much more volume than usual. That was reflected by the crowd when I was there around 8:30.”

More to come – we’ll be heading out to more spots including Fauntleroy Church (WSB sponsor), where the traditional Election Day Fall Bazaar promises baked goods, crafts, and a “soup lunch.”

    Wow! Give those teachers a raise right now! They’re gonna need that extra money for hearing aids – as someone without kids I’m not used to hearing the kind of enthusiastic volume those “VOTE!” kids have

    One of those kids was mine, and believe me that’s nothing. But a HUGE shout out to their teachers for the wonderful job of teaching the kids how important today was.

Sorry, comment time is over.
