Determined Black Woman Votes While In Labor!

This is what you call determination.  21 year old Galicia Malone's water had broken and she was having contractions that were 5 minutes apart by the time she got to her polling center at New Life Celebration Church.  She actually went into labor at 3AM but did not want to go to the hospital until after she voted.



“I was just trying to read and breathe, read and breathe......That’s what I kept telling myself, ‘Read and breathe, read and breathe’.”

This was her first time voting and she wanted a story to tell her daughter.  After voting she drove herself to the hospital.
