Election Day Scenes: Relatively high turnout in Ardmore

Inquirer staff writer Bonnie Cook reports:

Outside St. Mary's Episcopal Church, 36 Ardmore Avenue, Ardmore, which is Ward Four, Precinct 2 in Lower Merion, senior citizen Myrna Zachary said she had come to vote for Steve Lindner "because he came to our meeting yesterday." Zachary lives in nearby housing for seniors.

At mid-day, 95 people had already voted, a relatively high turnout for that time of day.

"We haven't even had the lunch rush or the commuters' rush," said Judge of Elections Lynda Muse.

Poll watchers said there was interest in the Fourth Ward commissioner's race pitting Lindner against Republican Dominic Liberi. The pair are vying for the seat previously held by Maryam Walker Phillips. The seat was held by Ardmore's Ora Pierce before Phillips assumed it.
