Memo for next election: Valet parking

Finding a parking space was harder -- and took more time than voting -- at Batavia High School, in Clermont County. At 7:40 a.m.. about three dozen voters had filled in their ballots, a poll worker said at the high school gym -- which was a new location for voters.

I was dismayed that an elections ballot -- for one party -- handed out outside the school had been left behind in my booth. Why don't poll workers require voters to throw away the voting pamphlets that are handed out before you walk into to vote?
