Just voted in NH 1 ward4, Derry, Rockingham county, kinda the Republican backbone of NH.
The line new voters was relatively long, but I was able to get a ballot almost right away. The workers are checking ID.
Voted straight Republican and said a prayer as I did it.
Did see one car in the parking lot with a MA licence plate, but the driver was inside, I’m thinking an observer or sign holder that wanted to get warm.
May God bless The United States of America!
PLEASE HELP, FREEPERS. How do I handle voter fraud?
I don’t want to waste bandwidth by posting a vanity, but I need your advice on how to handle this:
A fellow I work with (my supervisor, actually) calls himself “as left as possible” and is as radical and evil as Obama’s Chicago buddies. He would do anything if he thought he’d get away with it.
Last week he was discussing his Florida early voting experience with another employee. He was close enough to my desk that I overheard every word being said. He mentioned waiting 2 hours in line, mentioned where he voted, and that he voted “NO” on all amendments.
Today he was gone all afternoon, and when he returned he sported an “I VOTED TODAY” sticker on his shirt. I asked him where he was and he said we went to vote. I gasped, “AGAIN???”, to which he brushed me off by saying you can’t vote twice, you have to sign in, blah blah blah, never looking at me. His body language was that of a bad liar.
I know he is capable of seeking out the lowest common denominator to help him cheat. I approached the person he spoke with last week about early voting, and she confirmed that he said he voted last week.
What do I do about this? Your advice will be much appreciated.
Ignore the exit polls, they are taken between 11:00AM and 2:00PM so they favor democrats, because evening voters coming home from work tend to be Republican. The exit polls showed Kerry winning handily in 2004, needless to say that didn’t happen.
Mostly a lurker, but just chipping in my input today. I was voter #1144 at 4 p.m. CST in my tiny little town of Tallassee, Alabama (same town as AlasBabylon!) which is a bit remarkable as our population is only about 5000...and this is not the only polling place...lol
Alabama is solidly Republican but we had 11 Amendments to vote on and also Judge Roy Moore is running for Chief Justice of the Supreme Court again (his old job) so wishing him and Rep. Martha Roby well...
...from what I hear turnout is very high even in red ‘Bama.
Praying for a great outcome tonight!
I voted about two hours ago. A larger than usual turnout, but not overwhelming. For the past few months I’ve been using political signs as a guage. It was not until last thursday that I saw my first omuzzie sign. A FAR cry from 2008.
On a side note; My youngest daughter just cast her first vote. I hope she voted to oust the commie, but I am proud she voted.
2008 exit polls:
Florida: 52 percent to 44 percent
Iowa: 52 percent to 48 percent
Missouri: 52 percent to 48 percent
North Carolina: 52 percent to 48 percent
New Hampshire: 57 percent to 43 percent
Nevada: 55 percent to 45 percent
Pennsylvania: 57 percent to 42 percent
Ohio: 54 percent to 45 percent
Wisconsin: 58 percent to 42 percent
Indiana: 52 percent to 48 percent
New Mexico: 56 percent to 43 percent
So Obama was leading Ohio by 9 points in the first exit polls.
Drudge has moved Ohio from Obama to being a tossup, which is a very good sign.
EXIT Polls will remain tight — that keeps viewers watching the newsie channels.
Newsrooms will probably know who the winner is by 9:00pm ET, but they will trickle the results to keep the viewers watching.
Then, once one newsroom starts projecting state by state, the others will follow.
Gonna park on this thread tonite ... Listen to local radio coverage ... Pray a lot
CNN starting to report some:
KY “lopsided for Romney” with nearly 2-1 in early, early numbers.
Same in IN.
Couldn’t get the Connecticut thread to load so I’ll have to post here
Just returned from voting
My little CT town of 25,000 - polling place wasn’t too busy, but much more activity then normal and the lighter flow seemed constant. I asked the older gentleman who checked my ID how was the turnout and he said unbelievable. He said the biggest rush was right after they open from 6-8am. He said it was a madhouse.
Mr Kitty and I took that as a good omen as these voters have jobs and were up early - neither of which most democrats are.
Now, to watch the returns
W/ 70% in, Romney leads 50%-48% in Vigo County Indiana.
Vigo has voted for the winner in all but 2 elections going back to damn near Lincoln.
Alrighty then. Went to vote here on the Georgia coast around 2:30pm. No line but definitely a steady progression of voters coming and going, with all booths occupied. Pollworkers said it looked like our precinct would end up with over 75% voting if it kept up.
Again, thanks much for the wonderful, powerful prayer RKBA. We are, as always, in His hands.

RCP reporting vote results in by precinct percentages - http://www.realclearpolitics.com/
Dunno if it’s been linked yet, but it starts to come in by the half hour from here on out...
I bought Whiskey and ammunition today. I am flipping between CNN and Fox. I have excused the family to sleeping quarters and have the lap top open and running.
I told the wife if she here’s popcorn popping, I’ll be watching MSNBC and celebrating. I told she should be ready for some late night (or early morning) victory nookie. She said, “Wake me up! I’ll participate.”
Buzz....ON!
I like our chances.
The final RCP EV map had it: O 201, R 191. I give PA, MI, and NV to O, putting him at 243. I give FL, NC, VA, and CO to R, putting him at 257. R would then need 13. That leaves OH (18), WI (10), IA (6), NH (4). I have a good feeling about WI, maybe better than OH. Then if R can pick up IA, it puts him over the top, at 273. That is a squeaker scenario, but it could go higher than that.
