I'm in ohio, and was excited to vote for yes on issue one and two. I put on my Philadelphia Eagles hoodie and walked to my polling station
There was a coffee station run by a local. He was a thin man head full of grey hair and thick rimmed glasses, he was sitting at the time.
I decided to get a cup of coffee for the walk back. As I filled up my cup the local behind the table stood up and asked:
"Can I pray for you, for somthing"
I smiled and quipped: "yea, for a healthy eagles team"
He stammered: "I, uh, well how about this. I'll pray for the best team to win and hopefully its the eagles"
You would of thought I short circuit a robot. Was he expecting a selfish answer? Perhaps expecting me to be troubled? Or was he a bengals fan and didn't want to admit it?
All I know is the gentleman in ear shot overheard and gave me a bellowed laugh. It was short, but funny.

Missed opportunity to ask for prayers that the abortion rights bill would pass

You probably shouldn't've worn an Eagles jersey then.

Pray for the Rightful god to returned to his Hallowed throne; our Lord Lucifer misses his home. 🤘
