5 Things: Today Is Election Day!

[Your Song of the Day]

1. Weather report: Today will be a great day to vote! We are looking at sunny weather with a high of 43 degrees. Tonight should be clear with a low of 28 degrees. Tomorrow is looking rainy before snow makes its way over midweek.

2. Vote! Amherst will be voting at Souhegan High School Souhegan High School from 6 a.m. until 8 p.m. today.

3. Patch Fact: Barack Obama is the nation's 44rd president but in reality there have only been 43 presidents. Grover Cleveland is counted twice as our 22nd and 24th president because he was elected for two nonconsecutive terms.

4. Cheap books! The Friends of the Amherst Town Library Holiday Book Sale is running all this week. Come browse the Friends of the Library holiday gift book table placed conveniently near the checkout desk.
