**Election Day 2014 - LIVE THREAD**
Free Republic Rocks! | November 4, 2014

Happy Election Day everyone! I figured I'd go ahead and get the election day thread started. Polls open on the east coast in a little less than an hour.

Please be sure to post observations of interest if you went to the polls today.

I’ve taken my little Sons with me to vote a few times to show them. Never a problem.

If Harry Reid sees that lady come onto the Senate floor with any sharp objects. He’s going to be running the other way very fast, crying, “I am just minority leader. Don’t cut, don’t cut!”

In line with my wife and boys, voting for Scott and all of the Rs. Today, the boys schoolwork includes creating a new constitution for a new nation (9 other homeschooled families are in on the project.), creating a campaign for an office and a report on the Declaration of Independence writers. (And no, John Hancock was not an insurance salesman).

Getting ready to head out to vote here in the People's Republic of Illinois. It's probably a pipe dream, but GOD how I wish we could get rid of Little Dick Durbin.

Oh well, if we can at least take the Senate and bounce the Mighty Quinn out, it'll be a good night.

Voted here in Virginia, straight R. Hoping that Gillespie can pull off the upset.

Dropped my ballot in the collection box yesterday here in Washington (the state).

We shall see.

Yep, if CT voters do that, that would be an improvement.

The one thing I am happy though, is that those pesty adds are GONE. :)

In Texas, I voted a straight anti-democrat ticket, THEN I had the pleasure of going back into my machine marked ballot and UNvoting (removing the check mark by the name of George P Bush) for Land Commissioner.

“We’ve had enough Bushes.”

To quote the senior Mrs. Bush.

Already voted. Going to take a new shooter to the range, though.

I’m a resident of Virgina’s 1st Congressional District, rated R+8 by the Cook Political Report. Arrived at my precinct (a local elementary school) at 8 am sharp—one hour after the polls arrived. Parking lot was about two-thirds full; six people ahead of me in line, and about the same number waiting as I departed.

Overall turn-out appeared lower than I observed at the same location in 2010 and 2012. Virginia, of course, holds “odd-year” elections for statewide offices and the general assembly, and those won’t come again until 2017. Today’s ballot consisted of the Senate race, the local Congressional election and a proposed constitutional amendment.

Little doubt about the outcome in the district, but if turnout at my precinct is any indication, it won’t be enough to put Ed Gillespie over the top.

Let’s have a lottery about when this thread reaches 1,000 replies.

I say 12:05 PM.

I love some of the ads here... one of them is a Scott ad that shows Crist flip flipping on Obama, Obamacare, abortion, stimulus. It was funny.

Not enough caffeine yet...actually, polls in the Old Dominion opened at 6, so I voted two hours into the process.

Grand Rapids, Michigan here.

Voted in my central GR, mostly lefty, district.

I was astonished that I was only #78 as of 8:30. No lines. More poll workers than voters. It was so empty I thought that they might have changed the polling place when I first walked in.

And yes we show IDs, and oddly no one from the KKK was checking them. Go figure! We also use “fill in the circle with a pen” ballots. Only a moron would opt for the electronic machines.

I remember long lines in 2012. 2008 I was in a mostly black district and that took 48 minutes. 2010 was the same district and the lines were shorter than 2008 and 12 but longer than today.

It is also raining and very dreary. I didn’t think rain would make a difference, but who knows?

Anyway, I voted for the Governor, Land, Amash (that gave me a special joy because Rove tried to bounce him in the primaries, and tossed some votes to some GOPers that are serving on the boards of the big universities.

Also voted to allow wolf hunting. Well someone has to do it.

And the biggest one for me was a local issue to start term-limits for our city commission. They are hard lefties serving there now, so this will be good to bust that up.

Glad that’s done. Next time I vote absentee.
