SAME-SEX VOTING

Election Day has certainly changed from past years, with issues such as casino gambling and same-sex marriage on the ballot -- topics that wouldn’t even have been spoken of in polite company, a generation or two ago.

You’ve heard of changing your mind on who you’re going to vote for, or changing your address, or changing your political party. But on Tuesday, a southwest Omaha poll worker handled a situation involving an unusual kind of change.

A man came up to her and said he used to be a woman. He was registered under his old name.

She called election officials and processed the records change with no problem.

It was either a very nice encounter . . . or the wackiest case of voter fraud on the books.

Praise report: Our friends have a new baby! Meet Tiege Jefferson Petermann, son of Jeff and Kerry and brother of Kemper. He was born at 11:11 p.m. Sunday with a head of black hair. Kerry made up the first name, pronounced ‘’Teeg,’’ and everybody thinks it’s cool. Thank You, Jesus, for this precious new life. Surround this young family with a mountain range of blessings and protection as they raise their sons to live for You. (Proverbs 14:26)

Prayer request: We ask You, Lord, to cleanse Donna of cancer after her completion of chemotherapy and radiation.

O Lord, ransom her from the destruction of cancer and defeat it, for Your glory. (Hosea 13:14)
