There's a line not only at the polls today, but at the grave site of women's suffragist Susan B. Anthony, where folks are placing "I Voted" stickers on her headstone.
As many know, on November 8, 1872, Susan B. Anthony was arrested for illegally casting a ballot in the presidential election.
All to honor the fact that we are voting today for not only the first female presidential candidate of a major party, but most probably our first female president.

People lined up to visit Susan B Anthony's grave today. Gotta admit, I got a bit of a lump in my throat seeing this. pic.twitter.com/Unw8cOtxl4— Greg Hogben (@MyDaughtersArmy) November 8, 2016
