FWIW, the turnout in our town here in Vermont was very high, and mostly Democrat as usual. But we had some local issues that may be bringing people out.
Still, I think the Dems are pumped up and angry. So we just have to hope that the Republicans are MORE pumped up and angry.
Did anyone else just hear what Sean said?

Talked to some of the poll workers where I voted, (Villa Rica) they said turn out had been heavy till lunch time,
I voted at 4:30, took me a half an hour and by the time I was done, the lines had doubled.
Go GOP!
Well...... Tell us!
You may live in a bi-state, but I sure don't! ;)
Well...?
I have seem a single offical election thread and it just gets too big to keep up with.
Turn on Foxnews and see Chris Wallace. It was about Exit Polls. Chris says just as in 2004, there are problems with the exit polls. Internal problems that should make people take them with a grain of salt.
What he said was it does not look good for us right now. So what else is new. I do not want to go into details because these polls are contradicting themselves... in other words they are wrong.

New Poster dont hold it against me stuck at work. Nervous about GA8 if it goes Collins(R) going to be a long night for the Rats.
IMHO
Is there an accurate network to watch the returns? Fox is all gloom and doom..
Polls closed! Heck, I just got back from lunch!
I'm just not feeling good about this...in 2004, I just knew everything I was hearing was wrong...but this year, I have a bad, bad feeling...the media's message was just too loud and too strong. I'm usually a pretty optimistic sort. But I just don't have a good feeling about this one.
Major Garrett reporting Hastert's office has warned GOPers that the loss is 30 seats.
Interesting thing about both Vermont, my native state, and Hawaii, where I've lived for thirty years: Both very blue but both have republican governors.
I don't get it with this exit-polling. I heard they weren't going to do so this year UNTIL 5 p.m. ET. So what help is that - the polls are open til 8 p.m. in most states. Why do it at ALL while the polls are still open.]
Can anyone explain this?
Welcome to FR.
I must have missed that. I wonder what he is basing that on?
