They must still administer literacy tests when people try to vote down there.

We were on an overpass of route 32 about 6 back at a red light....the red light allows traffic from route 32 onto our main street. You can see for almost 2 miles the way they were coming. As our light turned green a local cop halted us even though they were 90 seconds away. About a dozen sirened vehicles and roughly 15 large SUV's. They stopped and ate at our Cardo's Pizza and it was a madhouse.

Many years ago St Paris had a traffic jam with people laying on their horns and traffic backed up everywhere. All because Graham beat Urbana in football. St Paris "blew up" as if it was like inner city projects and some black guy became president.

I imagine the Mike Brumfield signs cause major traffic jams.
