I'm a poll monitor in charlotte near the inc campus. Lines are around the building, all students. Judge says its as big if a turnout as 2012. Please vote even if you have to hold your nose!

Bad news. The potheads have been bussed in for Hagan

One day, sooner or later, Obama and Moochie will be gone from Washington.

But the brain dead idiots who voted Obama into the presidency will still be out there voting for democrats, breeding more like themselves, and destroying the country in return for a handfull of freebies.

Polls in the producer section of CT were as full as they were in 2012. Lord knows the parasite class will get to vote as often as they want given the shenanigans in Hartford.

My polling place was somewhat busy at 10 am today. No long line. I am in central Fla. north of Orlando.

Our polling place was basically deserted. Walked in and went straight to a machine to vote. Sad.

I see Charlie Crist is filing an injunction to keep the polls open longer.

Doing my part to keep North Idaho Democrat free for the last 16 years.

Judging by recent events, they have some level of influence in Coeur D'Alene (the wedding chapel incident).

Voted in a little blue-collar Dem town in an otherwise red county and state. Polling place was empty. Hooray!

Poll worker carefully checked every single number of my DL even though she’s known me most of my life.

You can thank the new voting schedule for that.

Small town southern NH - I went around 10:30, and my ballot was in the 1,100s. There are currently ~6,400 registered voters in our town. Seems like a lot of people voted early in the day. I wouldn’t say it was BUSY - but it was definitely busier than usual.

Keith Ellison suburb of Minneapolis. :^(

Voted at around 2:00. There were about 5 people voting the same time I was. There was no one in the “Registration” line, so that is different from 2012. I forgot to look at which number I was. In 2012, I had to wait a tiny bit, and there was a steady stream. Not so today. I was in and out in 5 minutes. Even though requiring an ID to vote was defeated in 2012, I still show my ID.

It was all elderly people, even the poll workers were.

I just asked my husband, who voted at around 7 AM, when the polls opened. He said there was really no one there. It was very quiet. He approached the table with the voter rolls, presented his ID, and the woman said, “Oh, it is so refreshing to see someone with their ID all ready! It is just so nice to see that.” He replied that he thought everybody should have to have an ID to vote; she was nodding, but another woman overheard and got all flustered, saying, “This is NOT the place to have this conversation!” He quickly deduced that the two women were on the opposite sides of the political aisle. :^)

In a pretty much Republican section of my pretty much Republican town in Eastern WA, there was a huge traffic jam at the library where we could drop our ballots. Nothing moved for two blocks in any direction. LOL

Luckily I got there about 40 seconds before the crush so here I am:)

This ‘hood is, I believe, solid Repub, but this turnout was larger than usual…Our congresswoman is very popular, probably has a job for life, but the exceptionally high numbers will add a nice flourish under her name.

I live in a pretty heavy “R” area of Pinellas County, FL. At 11 am and there was only one person other than me voting in our polling place. My husband went around 5 and he reported similar.

Me and better half voted at 9:30 AM in Bowling Green KY. Very light turnout, maybe 10 people in polling location. All were older and white. Held nose tightly as I voted for Mitch.

I am about 30 miles west of Boston, and our polling place was busier than I have ever seen it. Crowded, took about 20 minutes to vote.

I would hope that is a good thing, but after living here most of my adult life, it could mean just about anything.

Rural Ga. Very light voting, but more early voting than ever before in the county.

Saw no one younger than mid 40s either early voting or at the polls.
