Election Day 10:17 a.m.

Despite working 60 hours a week, Mike Jenkins said he still finds it difficult to support himself. Arriving at the polls in a car covered in political bumper stickers, Jenkins had no reservations about making his political beliefs public. “It’s pretty important,” Jenkins said, referring to the election. “I can barely afford to live anymore.”

Jenkins has been troubled by the rising cost of living, and worries he will soon be unable to pay for his car and his housing. He is strongly against measure 118. “It is a sneaky way to make things more expensive,” said Jenkins. He is hoping for a Republican Party victory in 2024.
