OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) - Sunday’s devastating tornado didn’t stop voters in Southeast Oklahoma City from showing up to the ballot box Tuesday.  “It's important for our country, for our future, for our children,” said Judy Delaney, a voter.  YOUR ELECTION HQ: How long will it take to know election results in Oklahoma? Windwood Free Will Baptist Church is located near the neighborhoods hit the hardest by the storm.  The church’s  power was restored late Monday afternoon, according to a poll inspector. The inspector told KFOR that voter turnout at the church is better this year than in past elections.  "It makes me very, very proud to be an American,” said Cheryl Parks, another voter.  Over the weekend, Judy and Mike Delaney’s roof and fence suffered significant damage.  "We lost our shingles, knocked the structure of the roof,” said Judy.  Mike added, “I got to pick up the fence off the sidewalk. I got a lot of fence to just stack and replace and some debris."  YOUR ELECTION HQ: Oklahoma Voter Registration soars over 2.4 million prior to election day Despite having at least days or even weeks worth of cleanup and repairs, they say voting was the most important thing they did today.  "We have to leave our country intact for our children… I feel very strongly about that,” said Judy. “If you haven't voted yet, do it. It's very important, no matter what side you're on."  The polls are open until 7 p.m.
