What benefits us more? High turnout or low turnout? I think it’s the latter but I can’t remember.
Just hope those blue collars are coming in by droves to vote what they REALLY think about obama
I voted at 6:30 this morning. Precinct lot was almost completely full. I’d be willing to bet a lot of them were there to send a very distinct ‘message’ to Obama and his Congressional lackeys.
people are reporting that in the Kansas City area they have never had to wait in line when the polls opened,
but today there are dozens ahead of them when they showed up.
two were voting when I arrived, two signing in when I left - disappointing. This precinct has a goodly number of Republicans which is unusual in NE NC.
I was, as usual, at the poll when it opened this morning. There were more people there than I have seen before.
They weren’t expecting interest in the outcome of Senate and Governor races? Are these the same people who find the job losses so “unexpected”.
Two out of three machines don’t work? CAN THE GOVERNMENT DO ANYTHING CORRECTLY?
At Work now, but will be voting at a Lancaster PA poll when work is done.
Question is whether these are Dem voters who always pull the D-lever or unemployed D voters who know there is a better way.
My main concern is about the Philadelphia fraud that happens every year. Governor Rendel was bragging on radio that he thinks the enthusiasm gap is more narrow in Pennsylvania and that RATS will come out to vote in bigger numbers than pollsters are saying. It sounds like he is setting us up for the fraud vote to steal the election.
I live in a city of 25,000. Normally I vote on my way to my 2nd shift job. I decided to vote after my shower this morning. Good thing. There wasn’t enough voting booths. I heard one say they never seen it like this before. They have more votes in that precinct now then they normally do all day.
I personally know of 3 dems who said they are not going to vote. I met a man getting ready to vote and I know he is a republican.
Voted around 11 AM (PA-15 Dent’s district). They said it had been steady, about 100 per hour.
In 2008, I went about the same time to vote and the line was about 60-70 long to get in. Much lighter this year.
If you hear that turnout is light in Phila., you know what the outcome will be.
“...shocking polls workers across the Lehigh Valley area who were not expecting much interest in races for key positions...”
They must be clueless Democrats.
I cannot remember what I was in 2008, but I think I was around 550 at the same time of day. If we actually match a Presidential election turn out, it will be a good day for Republicans.
Good Bye Feingold, Good Bye Kagan!!!!!
Every parking place taken in the lot at my southern York County polling place at 9:30 AM - nothing like two years ago but heavier than normal for an off year election.
Wife just voted and was # 1217 of about 3500 registered voters.
