Wife and I voted early last week here in Cobb Co. GA, NW Atlanta Burb. 90 minutes from when we got in line until we walked out after voting. Couldn’t have been a longer wait if we voted today, however, the weather was beautiful last week when we were in line, it’s been pouring at times this morning.
I’ll be voting in my Gloucester Point precinct this evening; It’s generally a 65-35 Repub location, as is much of Gloucester County.
Any idea as to who is causing the “high” turnout? Rs or Ds? Turnout in my suburban Baltimore precinct was low at 8:45 this morning, but it was POURING down rain. My precinct has a large chunk of black voters, but the 20 people I saw at the polls this morning were all older whites, mainly guys. FWIW.

I live in VA 11th District (Fairfax). It’s been raining all day. There was no line when I arrived at 9AM.
Too damn many Federal Employees who have around DC from the left coasts.
Our place only had one table today so it’s impossible to tell - usually the Dem table has about 1/3 the traffic as the Repub table.
Voted this AM in Stafford County (CD 1). No lines. People coming and going looked like a Republican crowd - lots of pick-up trucks and SUVs. County is 55-45 R (less R than it used to be). CD 1 as a whole is heavily Republican (Southern Prince William Co. to Williamsburg including Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula) and incumbent (Republican Rob Wittman) is expected to win easily.
Another 9th District voter here.
Somewhat higher turnout, not super high though.
Dems outside the place, no Rs. Looks like no surprises here (though Corey could sure use one).
Remeber ol’ Rick Boucher? He’s a lobbyist for a firm owned by the Chinese Army now! A true Democrat LOL!
First call of the night based on precincts (not exits)- Morgan Griffith re-elected in #VA09.
BTW, this is the guy to follow for VA elections. Very accurate!
