It was a steady first hour of voting at Marietta Middle School and Hickory Hills Elementary, with 44 residents casting their vote at Marietta Middle School before 7:55 and 47 voting at Hickory Hills before 8:05.

The item foremost on voters' minds this morning seemed to be the Marietta School Bond for an auditorium at Marietta High School.

"I have two small children who will be in there (Marietta High School)," a Marietta woman said. "I'm willing to take a tax increase for the auditorium."

"If they wanted one they should have done it when they built the school," another woman said at Marietta Middle School Tuesday morning. 

"We already have enough other facilities in Marietta," Pam Wood agreed. 

"I'll vote on everything, but I came out for Marietta High School," Ronald, of Marietta, said. "Marietta city has always been a strong supporter of education and preparing our children."

When it came to talking about Sunday sales, voters had little to say. One Marietta man, however, joked, "I like to drink and my wife's a teacher, take what you want from that."

As for the GOP Primary, Newt Gingrich was the favored candidate this morning. 

"I like his overall attitude of taking charge and getting things done," a 12-year Marietta resident said of Gingrich. 

"I choose Newt Gingrich," Cynthia Parten of Marietta said. "I think he has more experience and would be the best debater against Obama."
