Extremely heavy turn out in South Mississippi. We are deep
RED, but the turn out is an indication to me that folks are
on to the BO Marxist plans.
I stood in line for 2 hours! In 35 years of voting, I have never
seen this sort of turn out!
When you combine this with the report out of CO, where Dems only have a .8 lead in half a million votes . . . looking good, people. Looking good.
LS...since you’re such a poll guru, do you think rove is just pitching the public polls to us and that’s why he keeps claiming the big victory for BO? if so, why isn’t rove breaking them down? or is there some other motive for him to keep pitching it the way he does?
As to speculation that McC voters avoid pollsters, I did my little bit to add to that rep. As I was walking in, a guy at a card table outside asked me if I'd like to take an exit poll after voting. I said, "sure"; then, like the chicken I am, I walked out the back door after voting to avoid him altogether.
Here's hoping that the turnout will carry Ohio.
Please call and email media, not just conservative media and with kindly, gently tell them:
"It's the Marxism, 'stupid.' It's Obama's hatred of America's Rights of Life, Liberty, and Property." Period.
Great stuff - thanks for the report.
Keep em coming folks! We’re slugging it out and can pull this off.
I'm in Putnam County, which went 70% for Bush in 2004. I was the 121st person to vote in a precinct of 700-some voters this morning, and the nice election worker ladies told me that is a record pace. Apparently, we bitter clingers didn't get the memo about the Obama tsunami. :)
With Philly fruad, black panthers, etc, I remain hopeful...barely.
According to my Ohio guy turn out is “ridiculous” heavy all across the state.
Family and I voted in south Dayton this morning (Miamisburg/Springboro airport) and it was jammed. Predominantly red precinct, though there was a far higher percentage of black voters there than I expected. Got there about 6:40 and got out at 8:15 only because we were in the short line. The long line precinct would have been another 45 minute wait.
I voted in Warren Co. this morning. VERY RED precinct. Lines out of the school into the parking lot. I was in line at 6:30 am and waited over an hour and a half to vote. I was ballot 109. Heaviest voting I’ve seen in 30 years voting in the same precinct. Pretty wild.
As a former Buckeye from bright red Miami County north of Dayton, that is AWESOME news. When you have the red Counties voting big in SW Ohio, Cleveland can go stuff it.
I am waiting for Montgomery County to turn red this time and make SW Ohio solid RED!
I voted this morning in Middleburg Heights a suburb of Cleveland. I live in a democrat precinct and the line was very short compared to the same time in 2004. There were however a lot of absentees who had either already voted or at least gotten a ballot so it is hard to say what the actual turn out is.
Wonderful! Keep us updated.
HELP!!! Experience in central OHIO, in a heavy McCain area. Ran into my neighbor at the polling facility, she had her 18 year old son voting for the first time. She had early voted so the son walked up to the registration table with me. I was first, an AfricanAM man gave me my card to place into the machine and told me he would come over to help me vote when it was my turn....I told him that wouldn’t be necessary. HOWEVER, he also helped my neighbors son who didn’t know the difference. When it was his turn the man came over and explained how to do it and THEN, said and pointed, “TOUCH THIS TO VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA.” Of course, he didn’t know this was illegal and didn’t say anything but did tell his mother on their way home. She is calling to make a report. I sure wish I had taken his offer of help because had he said that to me, the entire place would have errupted and been shut down.

Reporting in from rural N Central (Morrow County) Ohio...took my daughter and son in law to vote with me this AM when the polls opened at 6:30. We vote at an American Legion Hall, and when we got there, it looked like Friday Nite $500 Bingo! I have NEVER seen so many cars! Two lines of people, out the doors and into the parking lot. It was very orderly and smooth, but it took 45 minutes to vote. (Hubby voted absentee, as he is in AZ for business conference).
McCain signs outnumber the others around here about 20 to 1, so I think this is very good news!
