I'm standing in line (in the rain) in Richmond, Virginia. Where are you?
BTTT while modding. ;-)
“Going to be there for the open. Taking my voter registration and my passport. “
How quaint. In California, no ID required. In fact, they are prohibited from asking you for any. You just walk in and say “I’m John Doe, here to vote.” They then look up “John Doe”, check it off, and hand you a ballot.
My husband went to vote at 5:45am, went past two polling places to get to ours in Chesapeake, VA. All three are filled with cars and people lined up around the buildings. Raining outside. He said it looks like a freaking holiday out there, cars everywhere. We’re in McCain country.
That’s good news. With the media declaring the race over and won by That One, I was wondering if our side would turn out.
I do not get the lines either. I have always voted at my precinct on election day at various times of the day (before work, lunchtime, after work ....), and I cannot remember waiting more than ten minutes to vote.
Just voted. Lets go!
It’s D-Day, H-Hour, M-Minute, S-Second. Arlington, VA.
See y’all after polls and work.
If I was standing in line right now I wouldn’t be online. I’ll be leaving in a few minutes to be at the polls when they open at 6 AM. That’s Kansas’ starting time. McCain - Roberts - Jordan - Howe - Vratil - No on electing judges - No on taxes for the health triangle boondoggle. And if we had light rail on the ballot here I’d vote against that, too.
Powder..patch..ball FIRE!
Headed to the polls in about 15 minutes since they open at 6am here in Missouri.
Wearing red shirt.
We are leaving right now to get to the polls.
Go McCain/Palin!
I’m heading to my polling location in a few minutes; will try to report before I go to work. It depends on how long it takes.
I’ll be voting after work.
Just voted in NJ. Unusually long line at 6 am for my small town.
Blackberry - FR works great on the tiny screen!
Not in line yet, but I’m on the west coast and polls don’t open for another 3.5 hours. However, I am going right when they open. I don’t care how long of a line I have to stand in! It’s raining and FREEZING cold here, but the sacrifice will be worth it! I’m expecting a pretty big line only because a lot of people will be trying to get their vote in before they go to work. I would’ve waited until later but my only transportation is with my dh and he has to go to work, so I will join him at the early polls. It will feel GOOD to have my vote DONE AND COUNTED EARLY!
I just can’t sleep tonight. It’s AWFUL! I got off work at midnight and tried to lay down and maybe I caught an hour of sleep, but now I can’t sleep for nothing! I guess I’m anxious for NEVADA to get the vote on!
I live in a small rural neighborhood Atlantic County, NJ).The parking lot had about 20 cars. Hard to tell from the faces any indication of how people were voting.
Most are folks that are voting before going into work.
30.1 degress and light rain at the MadHouse right now. Be careful on the road.
