Sandburg Hall 3400 N. Maryland Ave. Milwaukee Seemed to me that turn-out was light, compared to previous elections. No delays. Plenty of parking. 9:30 a.m.

My son is a student at UW Madison and is a poll worker today. He will be texting me info on how things are going in the heart of the liberal beast here in Wisconsin. I just asked him to find out turnout numbers this year vs 2008 and 2006.
Wisconsin currently has a Dem Gov, 2 Dem Senators, 5 out of 8 Dem Congressmen, and Dem state house and senate. In short, the Dems control EVERY facet of gov't, both Federal and State here except for state Atty Gen.
In today's election, Wisconsin may very well have the largest Blue to Red shift in the nation. We WILL be electing a Rep Gov, a Rep Senator, and possibly changing the Congress count from 5 dem/3 Rep to 6 rep/2 dem. We also stand a great chance to take over both the State of Wis House AND Senate.
If the kids and welfare queens stay home today, sanity may be restored in the land of cheese, brats, and beer:)
Are they pouting?
Thanks for the update. Still a ways to go though.
I commented that there was nobody at our polls which are usually lines a football field long, we’re a heavy republican area, the thread was pulled, guess the FR isn’ about the truth when the don’t like the report, hell, I was just reporting that I was very confused by the lack of voters and was called filth and all kinds of crap.
PULL MY THREAD BECAUSE I SAID THERE WAS NO-ONE AT THE POLLS AS WELL AS OTHER CO-WORKERS WHO WERE AT DIFFERENT POLLS? WELL GUESS WHAT, HERE I AM AGAIN.
where is your polling place? Heavily republican areas by me generally have people with JOBS who vote AFTER work or before.
You’re starting to sound like a Gators fan (think ‘Big Trouble’). Relax and settle down, brother. :)
College kids aren’t awake yet.....
Guess the buses with welfare voters from Chicago haven’t got there yet. They don’t get up till noon, you know.
They’re college kids. Give ‘em a chance. It’s barely the “crack-of-noon”. They’re just waking up trying to figure out how they got to wherever they’re at. They’ll show up and vote just as soon as they can remember what day it is.
You wouldn’t even reveal your state in your last thread.
I Have heard similar reports about low voting at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana.
Please make it so.
I think ol Syth is a troll
Maybe they thought that the “Restoring Insanity” Rally was the election....
Thankgoodness the MSM is in denial and all of the MTV veejays are asleep.
That and they don’t have a “dear leader” figure to vote for this election.
If he spurs someone to get to the polls instead of thinking victory is in the bag because the msm says so, he will have done a service to the cause.
No, at my university since Obama won they just checked out, having done their white liberal guilt thing. Seriously, NONE were excited about “cap and trade,” about the “stimulus,” or even “health (non)care.” So for more than a year they have not been engaged because I think they thought they “did their duty” and now can go back to drinking.
Correct! My wife voted before work and I will be voting after work! I can’t wait to go due my civic duty!
My college student daughter voted. We moved to a different state this summer. When she arrived, she was only here two weeks before she headed west for School. Voter registration was high on her priority list.
Conservative all the way.
Good news! I used to live two blocks from UW on North Maryland Ave.
Have they LEARNED anything from this?
Hey, cheer them up!
Tell them about THIS:
Skip to comments.
US to spend $200 mn a day on Obama’s Mumbai visit
NDTV ^ | November 2, 2010
Mumbai: The US would be spending a whopping $200 million (Rs. 900 crore approx) per day on President Barack Obama’s visit to the city.
“The huge amount of around $200 million would be spent on security, stay and other aspects of the Presidential visit,” a top official of the Maharashtra Government privy to the arrangements for the high-profile visit said.
About 3,000 people including Secret Service agents, US government officials and journalists would accompany the President. Several officials from the White House and US security agencies are already here for the past one week with helicopters, a ship and high-end security instruments.

Same thing this morning at the precinct I go to where, two years ago, Vanderbilt students were lined up down the block when the polls opened at 7am.
This morning, not a student in sight.
