I voted yesterday at Main Dunstable school, I saw to problems:

As I approached the front doors to enter, a police officer came out of the building not wearing a mask. As I walked past him I asked “wear is your mask?” he said he doesn’t need one because he is outside. The attached ordinance paragraph 2 states “Members of the public entering any business, including without limitation any outdoor area where business of any sort is conducted, work site, or government building must wear a face covering, such as a fabric mask, scarf, or bandana over their nose and mouth.” Are the police exempt from this law?

When I approached the registration table for my ballot, the worker pushed a ballot and a brown paper under the plexiglass. I did not understand what the brown paper was for so when I asked the worker what it was for I could not understand what she was saying because she was wearing a gas mask! I finally just took the ballot and brown paper she pushed to me and I tried to read it as I walked to the voting booth. There were several paragraphs with several options trying to explain what to do with it. I could not understand what it was saying, but I finally realized it was some sort of a protection device to prevent the ballot from contacting the voting booth table! That was a really stupid idea (they also gave me a pen with no protection device) and a complete waste of paper. If Nashua insists on these stupid brown folders they should be demonstrating to everyone standing in line waiting for their ballot and provide disposable pens (no gas masks, an N95 mask should be acceptable).
