LOS ANGELES — A 74-year-old homeless woman walked out of the James M. Wood Community Center in downtown Los Angeles on Tuesday morning, leaning on her cane and holding a small voting sticker.
It was primary election day and the woman, who declined to give her name, had made her way from the Union Rescue Mission nearby to the polling station.
"I have always voted," she said. "It's very important to let the candidates know that I care about them doing the right thing."
