Get Out and Vote
Like mbogo375 said.

(I could vote early and did).

Waited about 45 mins to vote at my polling place, short considering the folks who arraived and were in the A-G line were still waiting after I voted. Usually I'm in the first 60 to vote, this year I was 129, so definitely larger turn out.

One vote for W from a solid RED state.

I'd much rather vote early and I'm definitely voting, but I'm waiting until my son gets out of school (he's nine). He's been in the booth with me for every election since he was born, hopefully he'll still care when he's of age.

Done, despite the two fossils working the table this morning (neither of whom could see well enough to locate my name; I wonder if they'd have had the same difficulty had I been registered as a Democrat ).

Hey George,
I wouldn't want to volunteer for that job would you?
My parents have done it locally for the last several years. I know lately they've devoted at least two days to rules meetings and several other days to organizing paperwork and other volunteers. Today they are planning to be at the poles SIXTEEN hours (for free) to hear people whine.
I'm glad someone will do it.

Kyler,

If they paid me my regular wage, I'd do it. Of course, I'd actually examine the voters' identification, and process them quickly. During the slow periods, I'd read books on hunting Africa, instead of yakking incessantly and scarfing donuts.

That job is pretty simple, a chimp could do it. Check id, look up the name, obtain voter's signature, hand them a numbered card. Hell, even a McDonald's employee could handle it.

In these parts, 99% of the poll workers are senior citizens looking for some extra cash and something to do, and Democrat party hacks.

Done, as of 9:00AM CST. An important election for many reasons, and especially if you value your gun rights.

In Oregon we vote by mail. I don't know if that's any "better" than going to polling places to cast ballots, but it is more convenient. I don't ever mail my ballot. I always hand deliver it to the county election center. Gary T.

At 0710 MST I placed my vote. The polling place was very busy and I'm hoping that most fellow voters are on the "right" side... but I fear the worst. Unfortunately, the lady behind me (my wife) cancelled all my votes to the letter. At least I cancelled her vote, back!

I voted last week. Ya'll in those "toss-up" states are the ones that need to get out and vote.

I just responded in mbogo375's thread just so I can say I voted twice like those double registrants in Ohio and Florida.

We voted first day of early voting!! Waited over an hour in a very packed polling place.

On the news they said that over 25% of the registered voters in San Antonio voted early.

I have been voting for over 40 yrs and this is the first time I have stood in line outside the polling house. Hugh turn out in this swing state.

Mailed my absentee ballot ten days ago. Just saw first results from Guam, 17,000 Bush, 9,500 Kerry. I hope that is an omen

Done!

Fortunately I have a full clinic schedule this afternoon and evening to keep me occupied.

I'm so anxious you couldn't pound a needle up my ass with a sledgehammer.

In our area of Virginia we vote in an old cabinet shop, we have one booth and I was in and out in 5 minutes. I am a gun owner, collector, hunter, wounded Vietnam vet, and proud to be an American!! Guess who I voted for!! Take care and God bless.

Here in Columbus, Ohio ------- In a precinct that I have been able to walk in and vote in minutes, in every election from 1976 to now. There was a 3 1/2 hour line at 10:30 am this morning. My precinct had 1400 new registrations this election period. I don't konw who it favors, but it sure is different!

Voted early to avoid the rush.

By the way, is there any truth to the rhumor that due to the extremely heavy voter turnout this election that Republicans are scheduled to vote today, Nov. 2nd and Democrats are to vote Wed., Nov 3rd?
