Smiling faces welcomed early-morning voters around Takoma Park as they walked in to cast their ballots or stop to purchase a brownie from the local  school's PTA. 

The early-morning crowd was excited and thankful they didn’t have to wait in long lines due to the early voting process.

Takoma Park resident Pepe Gomez, 46, said the process has been fairly smooth for him, but he would like to see a few changes.

“I still think that although we have early voting, we must have the day of the election as a national holiday so people can come to vote,” Gomez said.
