One of the best ways to identify what’s going on in any area is a ground report from the people most familiar with it, that’s YOU. If you are voting today perhaps you would consider sharing a ground report from your town, city, neighborhood or voting precinct.
How’s the turnout? Any issues or concerns? What’s the overall climate amid your voting locales. Please feel free to share your personal perspectives in the comment section along with any links to any information you feel might be valuable or interesting. ...

LOL! yes the sub postal worker was too afraid to cross the lawn. Left our mail out on the SIDEWALK once.
Orange County, CA
Hubby and & I tradition of walking to polls right when they open, breakfast after. This year especially poignant as our 9 month son got his first ‘I Voted” sticker! ha
Line was around the corner at 7am..we then walked to breakfast & line even longer on way back. My husband noted the lines way longer today than past elections. Mix of people voting..on way to work, older and younger voters.
Exciting day!
I dropped off my kids at school this morning which serves as a voting place. No lines at all. I early voted last week and the polling clerk said that my district already voted over 84%, so I am not surprised by the light turn out at the school. I am in SW Austin which is roughly 50/50 Repub/Dem.
Just heard from a poll worker here that reports they are bussing people to polling places in Philadelphia and giving them a Hillary sticker, and either a pack of cigarettes or a cell phone. Has been reported. Don’t know if true or not. Voter ID, please.
I voted early (last Thursday) in Lyon Co., Nevada. Had about a dozen people in line ahead of me, all white middle aged and older, couple of red shirts, couple of Viet Nam vet hats. The ladies said turn out had been heavy since early voting started.
My sister voted last Friday (Washoe Co., Nevada), no lines.
My son voted this morning in Carson City, Co., Nevada. Poll workers were all young well dressed women, people voting were majority gay and Hispanic. He was surprised at the number of Hispanic, his precinct does not have that many. They were not happy to see him in his Oathkeeper uniform.
Back in the late 60’s my stepfather was in charge of voting machine delivery and pickup during the elections in Fayette County, Uniontown PA. Talk about a Democrat stronghold.
I should add that there were two woman, waitresses i believe that did admit they were Hillary supporters. Big vocal laugh and a Trump chant from the whole resturant,very polite.
Classy. Unlike the rabid frothing at the mouth diehard democratic fools elswhere.
My son lives in Brooklyn, too. He’s studying at SUNY Downstate. He told me that when he voted in the primary, the election worker automatically handed him a Democratic ballot. When he told her he needed a Republican one, she said, “Oh! I’m sorry! You’re the first person to ask for a Republican ballot all day.” I haven’t heard from him yet today.
I just got my hair cut. he’s gay so voted for HC even though he hates her (WTF), BUT....He said his entire family is registered dem and every one of them voted for Trump.
I have several other anecdotes like that that did not happen in 2012/2008 so Trump is going to win this, I just know it.
That I did see on FNC earlier today.
Remember, Floridians, there are going to be a lot more Democrats voting for Trump than Republicans voting for Hillary. Bears repeating.
“hot” moonbats?
Shirley you jest!
One was.
The other actually pretty hot looking.
Southwestern suburbs of Baltimore, MD. A moderate to slightly conservative area. My wife and I have NEVER EVER seen any line at our polling place in the 16 years that we have been voting there. This morning, my wife was there when they opened at 7:00 a.m. Said the line was out the door; took her 40 minutes to get through. She said that there was a higher proportion of blacks and Asians in line than she’s used to seeing. (The district has a fairly high share of Asian residents; not as many blacks.)
I went around 10:00 a.m. Always about 10 people in line, coming in steadily at about the same rate as people were voting and leaving. Almost all middle-aged white people when I was there.
I see two possibilities: (1) the libs are scared that Trump could pull it off, and are voting in higher than normal numbers to block him; or (2) the monster vote is showing itself here in Central Maryland. I don’t know which one to think. All I know is that the turnout in my precinct is way higher than normal.
Most relevant in these discussions, I think, would be reports of heavy turnout in precincts that lean R and light turnout in districts that lean D.
Am I correct?
