Well I tried to go vote today. The wait in line was 90 minutes. I only managed to complete 45 of it and then my 16 month old decided it was time to go. I heard the precinct workers say that 250K have voted in Harris Co (Houston) already. Very heavy turnout.

I had to wait in line for an hour too...it was not true early voting though, it was for folks who have a problem. My problem is I have to go out of town unexpectedly next week and did not request a mail-in ballot.

Well, my problem was easily solved but boy you would not believe some of the problems folks have voting; mostly through their own fault (i.e. "I didn't get a ballot"..."Well did you register"..."Oh do you have to register?"...lol...On the one hand it was heartening to see so many trying to exercise their right to vote; on the other, you have to wonder if they are informed enough to vote.

Does Zachery have a button to wear when you go back?
