Ok, I voted at 6:31am ET and am checking in! I was going to shave before I went but I thought about it and decided showing up looking like a Visigoth was more apropos.. :)
I’m standing in line in Roswell, GA.
3rd voter at my polling place. We’re out in the woods,in a small community, but it’s looking like a big turnout already this morning!
PS get rid of machines and stick to the paper and pencil ballot. JMHO
The check-in people seemed disappointed that I wanted a ballot instead of using a machine. When I got to the both, none of the pens worked, so I moved to the next booth (again I am the only voter there), the pens didn't work there either, so I went back to the desk. Finally, someone found a workable black pen.
After I voted and inserted my ballot in the feeder, my ballot was calibrated as vote number 1.

I will be gathering my crew this afternoon to go vote. We can’t wait and it’s going to be a long day. But by the time my head hitys the pillow tonight, Wisconsin voters will have rid the party of the sanctimonious Russ Feingold. Ya’ll can thank us tomorrow!!!
what state do you live in?
We need to know where these machines come from or who makes them.
I want to know the chains of custody.
Congratulations!
Voted absentee. Went and put signs out at our precinct this morning and will be poll watching from one until closing in a local “minority” district. I expect to feel very welcome. The early voting center that was located there was going 10 to 1 democrats versus republicans voting. I would love to know how many of them crossed over and voted republican.

Are you ready to throw this putrid congress out on their heads?
This ain't going to end well for these Statists
Agreed. Paper ballots would help suppress fraud...
I am in NY, we just went from the machines to the paper ballots.. No hanging chads anyway. :)
I voted in MO 7th (heavily GOP) this AM. There at 5:55am, maybe 20 people in-line. My vote was the 6th one cast.
Will be voting later in Butler Co. where we got rid of the old punch machines and went to only paper ballots. I love them! There’s lots of enthusiasm here in the south east, conservative, part of state.
Did you vote for Jimmy McMillan? j/k
My wife and I and 2 of our sons voted in Louisville, KY at 6:12 AM. I was the 20th voter. We use paper ballots and I voted for each and every Republican so that I could savor the moment (rather than vote a straight ticket). My 3rd son is doing a surgical fellowship in Philadelphia and voted absentee.
On second thought, maybe not.
