Good Info Bump
Or if the Fox crew starts poking fun of Juan to try to get him unglued again.
Yikes! I'll be back! Gotta vote!
Of course, it is everybody that works and wants to get their vote in. I'm home today, so I'll go a little later to give them a chance.
I think anyone with "internets" savvy will know the score by mid-afternoon . . . I don't see how they can restrict exit polling info in this data-rich environment (FR, Drudge, bloggers) . . . that being said, here's my plan: get a shower and go vote, shop for a new vehicle (not part of the original plan), appear as scheduled at County GOP Headquarters for a few hours of GOTV, come home and see if FR is still working (probably will be swamped and non-functional), then turn on Fox News for the duration . . .
Ohio, Franklin county checking in! Going to vote for "W" now. Will check back in later.
"W" Will Win OHIO!!!!
For the troops!!
If it's going well early on I'm going to surf the MSM TV shows and amuse myself watching their heads spin.
Thanks for the thread, I'm sure to get curious during the night and this sure beats CNN or BBC.
How appropriate to wake up and see the FR Situation Room open. Thanks for the thread AAE.
Prairie
PS: Yeah, I know MD is Dim Land, but I want to be counted in the popular vote. Let's drive those numbers up all you non-battleground states Pubs. As for the battlegrounders, well you know what to do: VOTE!!!
Just voted.....and boy did that feel good!!!!
Live thread here
I voted before 7am....they were open.
Despite all the hoopla about Rock the Vote and getting MTV types out to vote, I didn't spot any of those punks on line. Somehow I just don't think your typical MTVer has the patience to stand on line to vote. You won't see many of them voting in this election despite all the publicity. After seeing that line yesterday, I felt a lot better about this election.
One other thing that I didn't mention before on the FR because I didn't want to give a heads up to the RATS. I sometimes read the Spanish language newspapers and listen to the radio in Spanish (despite being a gringo) and there has been a lot of political advertising pointing out that Kerry supported partial birth abortion while Bush opposed it. This is a VERY IMPORTANT issue to most Latins, whatever there other poltical proclivities. So don't just look for Bush support from voters here of Cuban background. Bush will also be supported by Florida voters of Venezuelan, Colombian, and many other such backgrounds. Anyway, this stress on the abortion issue is very prominent in the Spanish language media but overlooked elsewhere. It will be in play today.
Look for a big Bush win Florida in large part due to this under the MSM radar issue in the Spanish language community.
Just got back from putting campaign signs up around a polling place in Hillsburough NC. There was about 40 people in line when the polls opened at 6:30. There were 2 people from 'vote watch'(could have name wrong) or some non partisan group that were there to make sure all votes were fairly counted (don't know if they are REALLY nonpartisan or not). They were nice and were giving out flyers with contact numbers in case there were voting problems.
There were about 10 workers and judges in the polling place and they seemed very proffesional. I met my counter part, a dem poll observer, and he was nice and amiable. We decided not to talk politics while observing the voting. I go back from 12:30 to 7:30. One good piece of news, I got there a little before anyone else and managed to put up the Conservative signs all along the pathway going to the voting place - got the good realestate.
oh and am still pissed off that PBS showed that Frontline hit piece on Bush again last night! I can't believe taxpayer money is being used to defeat Bush...
Welcome back . . wow . .that was fast
Was it crowded ?
