Voted there at 7:30. Was in and out in less than 5 minutes but it was getting busy.

just did as well, It is absolutely popping here. tons of people

Dang, yeah that’s messed up

Goin to go vote, then work on packing for our trip. It’s bright out, if cold, so maybe my pups will get two walks today.

yeah we parked on the opposite side of the building not really knowing where to go. i guess that's diversity's event space. worked out great.

super easy voting at diversity 30min ago

got 'im!

Stood in line with Timmy Kaine and Jen McClellan at Diversity Thrift. Sort of weird that you go in on the back side but logistically it makes sense. I'd just never been over there.

Just voted at Diversity. Was in and out pretty quickly, but it was also bustling.

I hope you washed it

I'm finally coming home. However, I thought y'all would like to know that my mom went to the doctor in this overseas country, and the doctor had received his MD from MCV.

Well done

Voting, donating a leftover frozen turkey from Thanksgiving, and getting my tires rotated, baybeee.

The narrative that transit is only for poor or working people bothers me. We should strive to make transit good enough that people ride it by choice, not merely by necessity. I want it to be so good that people consider it more convenient than driving their private vehicles.

A side benefit of by-choice ridership is that, historically speaking, wealthier riders have been more successful lobbying for service improvements.

I just shook Joe Morrissey's hand, looked him in the eye, walked into IBEW 666, and voted for Jennifer McClellan. lol

It’s a test/proof of concept that isn’t funded for the long term.

Why would GRTC commit to higher costs for something like this? There is plenty of local data that shows bus routes to far suburbs are money losers.

Yes… short pump can not exist without lots of people that can’t afford to live there coming to work there

first they need to work on not ignoring people at the stops they're waiting at

Oh that’s really sad 💔

booking rides like a taxi? really? jesus christ grtc is trying to spend the absolute least amount of money to say “look we implemented transit”

I agree. Richmond (and the counties) need to be doing more. And not just in the winter

During our last cold snap, they had to turn people away - the two shelters unfortunately aren’t sufficient to provide space for all of the homeless in the city

The feeling is mutual. It gives me great solace though, that you weirdos are mostly confined to Reddit and the vast majority of the real world thinks like I do.

There are two inclement weather shelters open every evening in Richmond when the temperature is below 40.
