At midday, the Cole Mill Church of Christ polling place for precinct 37 had more hoopla than voters. It seemed like many people had voted early, leaving the polling place largely deserted by voters but populated with campaign volunteers handing out fliers and a DJ playing singalong pop tunes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The center of much attention was Darrick Woods, who spends most days as the director of nursing programs at Piedmont Community College. A DJ since he was a student at UNC\u2013Chapel Hill, he took the day off to work for DJs at the Polls, a nonprofit group that hired over 4,000 people across the country to provide music at their local polling places.<\/span><\/p>\n

Woods had no preset playlist but had guidelines to keep his selections family\u2013friendly. At some polling places during early voting, which Woods noted was more lively, groups of little kids would come up to his booth and begin dancing. \u201cMusic is the one sorta thing that binds everyone,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Besides making a little money, Woods was happy to provide relief and entertainment for what can otherwise be a stressful day\u2014 \u201cI\u2019m not changing votes, but changing mindsets.\u201d (Woods voted last week.)<\/span><\/p>\n

Former president Donald Trump won this precinct by almost 20% in 2020, but the small midday group was a mix of Harris and Trump voters\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ingrid Conley, a Triangle-area realtor, distributed sample ballots with suggestions for each race\u2019s Republican candidates. She wore an American flag shawl, which she said she wears four times a year: Memorial Day, Independence Day, Election Day, and Veterans Day. During early voting, she worked as a poll worker inside this same polling place.<\/span><\/p>\n

One voter had strong feelings to back up his vote. Bill, an unaffiliated conservative who voted for Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, Ross Perot, and Bill Clinton, said politics have gotten more extreme since he first voted in the Nixon election, especially on the left. He said that he feels so much of the left is about criticizing the right, and that he doesn\u2019t understand what they\u2019ll do for him. \u201cSure, Trump\u2019s a pompous ass,\u201d but he cares about improving the average American\u2019s life, Bill said in explaining his vote for the Republican candidate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In terms of policy, Bill said he does not want his taxes going to politicians who support funding gender\u2013change procedures or Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs. He said he prefers something he picked up from a tech CEO, MEI\u2014 \u201cmerit, excellence, intelligence.\u201d He also favors immigration. In fact, Bill sponsored his wife to immigrate from China. She is now studying to be a registered nurse at the Duke University School of Nursing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bill was happy to speak about his politics and beliefs. But he would not give his full name\u2014 \u201cBill, that\u2019s all you need.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

At noon, Fayetteville Street\u2019s White Rock Baptist Church was quiet. Voters pulled in, cast their ballots, and quickly slipped back to school, work, and all that will persist in their lives post-Election Day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Marvette Chambers came to the polls during her lunch break. A preschool teacher, Chambers wore bright blue lipstick and long seashell earrings that stood out against the church\u2019s gray parking lot. As colorfully as she was dressed, her demeanor was grim.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cToo many of my ancestors lost their lives so I could have the option to vote,\u201d said Chambers. \u201cUs Black people had to fight to have our voices heard. No matter what the results are, I came to perform my civic duty.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

White Rock Baptist Church is a predominantly African American Church with a long history,\u00a0 founded in 1866. On Election Day it served as a voting precinct for the primarily African American community surrounding it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ahbryanna Wilson, 18, was nervous as she entered the polls to vote for the very first time.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI was stressed because I was getting so many texts saying \u2018Vote, vote, vote..\u2019 and my mom was like \u2018Make sure you go vote,\u2019 and her boyfriend was like \u2018Do you know everyone you\u2019re voting for?\u2019 But I got it done and I\u2019m feeling good,\u201d Wilson said before leaving to get her nails done, as a post-polls treat.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Wilson was not alone in feeling nervous. Poll volunteers, sitting in folding chairs along the path leading to the polls, expressed anxiety about the results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe other day, my 11-year-old asked me if I was more scared about what will happen if Trump wins, or if he loses,\u201d said Madeline Seltman, a volunteer with the Durham Democrats. \u201cI was like \u2018Well heck.\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Armed with flyers listing the candidates endorsed by the Durham Committee on the Affairs of Black People, Nathan White reached White Rock at 6:45 in the morning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sorry about the kind of world we\u2019re leaving behind for young people,\u201d said White. “There was a time where who you voted for didn\u2019t matter past election day. People could be friends even if they voted differently.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s different now. Today, I worry about a civil war breaking out.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Julie Tetel agreed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m terrified,\u201d she said, before launching into the song \u201cKalinka\u201d<\/span>\u2013 <\/span><\/i>a song in the repertoire of the Russian Red Army Choir \u2013 while dancing along.<\/span><\/p>\n

Even as anticipation, dread, and excitement coalesced, ultimately, people were there to do what they had to do.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m out here because I\u2019ve got to give back to the community,\u201d said White, glancing\u00a0 into the distance. \u201cI\u2019m here, because I have to be.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Charlie Thompson has made it a point to vote on Election Day ever since he cast his first vote for Jimmy Carter in 1976.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI really cherish the right to vote, and want to exercise that on the day of the election. I always do it,\u201d said Thompson, a professor of cultural anthropology at Duke.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Tuesday, he was second in line to vote at EK Powe Elementary School.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thompson considered running to the polls as he neared the man who was first in line.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI could sprint, and I could get there \u2014 but, I didn\u2019t.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The fog hadn\u2019t yet lifted, and the trees beyond the school were blanketed in morning haze. And still, voters were out to cast their ballots in Durham\u2019s third precinct.<\/span><\/p>\n

Several showed up with dogs or young kids in tow. Many, including Thompson and his dog, Hazel, stayed to chat with the volunteers, who were neighbors or acquaintances.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thompson felt called upon to vote. \u201cI think that the very idea of our constitution and our democracy are at stake this time,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taylor Wells arrived with his wife and their one-year-old daughter, Junie. What was at stake for Wells? He pointed first to his hat, which carried the message, \u201cVote For Your Daughter.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe superintendent [race] is what brought me out today,\u201d he said. As a self-described \u201cTar Heel diehard,\u201d Wells said his vote for Duke alum Mo Green carried weight.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIf I can vote for a \u2018Dukie,\u2019 you can vote for a Democrat.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The most pressing issues for Wells were childcare, affordable housing, and reproductive rights. \u201cMy childcare is more than my rent,\u201d said Wells, who cast his presidential vote for Kamala Harris.<\/span><\/p>\n

When asked why he came out to vote, though, Wells had a simpler answer.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI mean, it\u2019s kind of what we do, right?,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wells\u2019 wife, Jackie Cook, also voted for Harris. Kneeling beside Junie, who was wearing a \u201cfuture voter\u201d sticker, Cook said she voted with her young daughter in mind. \u201cI want her to have rights to choose and be in control of her own body. It\u2019s terrifying to think that can be taken away from her,\u201d she said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She worried, too, about the aftermath of the election.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cook feared there may be violence following a Harris victory from those who disagree with the results. \u201cIf Trump wins, I mean \u2014 I haven\u2019t even had a chance to think about it until right now,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wells also shared some anxiety about a Trump victory, but remained hopeful.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMy gut feeling is: I\u2019m very optimistic right now,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Precinct chairman Tom Miller joined volunteers from the People\u2019s Alliance and the Durham County Democratic Party in handing out sample ballots and greeting voters with donuts and coffee.<\/span><\/p>\n

Miller missed his chance to greet one voter before she stepped too near the polling place. Miller wasn\u2019t bothered, though. \u201cShe seems like a Democrat,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

How could he tell? \u201cI know her,\u201d Miller said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another voter made his leanings more obvious. As Democratic volunteers attempted to hand him sample ballots, he covered his face, saying repeatedly, \u201cI\u2019m voting for Trump! Trump! Trump! Trump!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The voter, who didn\u2019t want to be identified, had only one message to share: \u201cIt\u2019s challenging being who I am in Durham County.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

A man in a hoodie, his hair slightly graying, walked out of the Durham County Main LIbrary in the early afternoon on Election Day, clutching a sample ballot and his driver\u2019s license. As soon as he emerged beyond the orange chalked line, volunteers came together to cheer and fist-bump him, calling him \u201cbrave\u201d and \u201cpatient.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

He turned toward the volunteers as they thanked him, and made his way to his motorcycle to ride home.<\/span><\/p>\n

The man, who asked to not be identified, asked volunteers for assistance voting because he cannot read. After nearly an hour inside the polling site \u2014 amid some confusion regarding whether or not he could vote \u2014 he emerged victorious.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

James McGuinness, a volunteer with Democracy NC, was among those who assisted him. McGuinness lives in Washington, D.C., but has spent the past month or so volunteering at polling sites in North Carolina.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a feel-good story, because we\u2019ve seen, unfortunately, some feel-bad stories: People upset, ripping up their provisional ballots because they didn\u2019t understand them,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSo, this was really nice. They were patient, they were transparent.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Another voter came out clutching a sheet of paper, upset that she had been instructed to cast a provisional ballot. McGuinness calmed her down, explaining how to follow up and ensure that her ballot was cured.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although not every voter was greeted with the same reaction, energy was still high outside the library thanks to music from Justin Epps, known as DJ Justn Txme (pronounced \u201cjust in time\u201d).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Damal Jackson came out to vote with his stepdaughter, his girlfriend, and her daughter. Jackson, who is originally from Boston, evidenced by his backwards Celtics cap, said he\u2019d voted in each election since he turned 18. He is now 37.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Jackson said he was voting \u201cso Trump won\u2019t win, so he can\u2019t do Project 25, [so] he can\u2019t give police immunity,\u201d he said. \u201cTo keep school going,\u201d Linda Robinson, his girlfriend, chimed in.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI want to give everybody equal rights,\u201d Jackson said, who casted his vote for Harris. Harris\u2019s was the only circle he filled in, he said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Alia Naomii, a student at North Carolina Central University, was out volunteering with Kinston Teens, a youth-led organization. She greeted voters on their way out and thanked them for voting.<\/span><\/p>\n

Naomii said she hadn\u2019t voted herself. She was busy, and didn\u2019t register before the deadline.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cActually coming here though is like, \u2018Man, I wish I would\u2019ve registered,\u2019\u201d Naomii said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOur ancestors worked so hard for us to have a voice. \u2026 Am I doing a dishonor to my ancestors?\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For others, the decision to vote came down to something simpler. Tamika Robinson and her boyfriend Terrence Scoggins said they were tired of receiving political texts and calls.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cJust in the last five minutes, we got 20 text messages, together,\u201d Robinson said. \u201cMy whole entire inbox was voting. I\u2019m like, \u2018Okay, I get it.\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
