I don’t understand why so many Americans think that voting only counts when it’s a Presidential election. Because every single election counts.

Company causes this misery!
Many of you know I grew up in Greater New York City. Where Robert Moses transformed the area to produce a plethora of roads and bridges. But, even with all that building, traveling was tough. The Southern State Parkway (which was the backyard of my childhood home) opened in 1927. This four lane, 25 miles long, parkway started with tolls providing access to New York City for those on the Southern reaches of Long Island. It became 8 lanes (city line to the Hempstead Lake State Park) and six lanes thereafter before I was 10. The tolls disappeared sometime after I left the area.
