North Haven's polls open til 8 tonight!

Folks,
Just talked with Laurie Brangi, Republican registrar of voters, and she tells me that only 446 of the town's 15,102 registered voters voted in today's budget referendum as of 4 p.m.
The proposed budget is $85.05 million and there is no tax increase.
They were also talking about the very, very low voter turnout on facebook.com.
Granted, there's no tax increase, but the town is spending lots of money -- about $10,000 -- for you to exercise your right to vote.
Here's a discussion from Walt and Michelle Spader and Ruth Bryant:
Michelle said: Sadly, at 8 am I was only the fifth voter at Green Acres. Polls opened at 6 am.
Walt (North Haven's Democratic town chairman) said:  At 1:15 I was the 25th...
Ruth said:  My husband was the 3rd at 7:30....

So what do you all think? Did you vote today?
