In 2008 and 2012 there were Obama voters lined up around the block. Poll worker said there was a line early this morning, but when I got there around 8:30 I didn't have to wait. I'm at a different precinct this time, so I'm going to ride around a bit and see how things look. What are you seeing at your polling place?

I voted in Cobb County - Newt’s old district- a week ago Friday. Took an hour to vote.

There was a long line where I voted. Right next store was another polling place and people who were parked on the street due to back ups. I’d say turnout is as high as I have ever seen.

We need freepers who early voted to go to their precinct and see if it counted.

Georgia is not in play. Romney won Georgia in 2012 by 10.5%, and I don’t expect Hillary to be more popular than Obama was in 2012.

Georgia is not in play. Do not believe that for one minute. I live in a county that went 72% to Romney and 27% to Obama even though none of us cared for Romney. This year I had to vote early. The lady at the poll said they normally average 600 people a day on early voting and so far there were averaging 2,200 per day. This county will go big for Trump. We hate Hillary. Atlanta, Columbus, Macon, Savannah will probably go for Hillary but not as big as for Obama but the rest of the State I think will have huge turnout for Trump.

Relax, the following states “are not in play”:

Georgia
Ohio
Iowa

Watch for PA, MI, NH & 2nd Maine, also FL

The demorats are playing defense this election!

Georgia will go for Trump by 3 to 6 points, bet on it.

There were over 100 in line when I got to my precinct at 7am. Waited for about 30 minutes. Longest line I have ever seen at this polling location with the exception of 2004.

Middle Georgia here. The longest lines I’ve ever seen at my precinct — typically red precinct — I arrived 5 minutes before polls opened, and there were 60-70 ahead of me. Lines moved fast. Didn’t see an easy way to distinguish Dem-Rep, but seemed to be a lot of “working folks”.

What A Wonderful World
Louis Armstrong

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They’re really saying I love you

I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They’ll learn much more than I’ll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world

The wife, and I, voted in Rockdale county at 9am, not many folks there, but we have a small precinct. She and I were the only ones in red shirts.

No lines, took us 10 minutes, tops, to vote.

I live in a large Republican precinct on the east side. This morning at 6:45, every parking place was taken. Wonderful to see.

In the rich neighborhood adjoining Piedmont Park, there was a Clinton Kaine sign in almost every front yard... Maybe the homeowners association gave them benefits to put a sign there haha

Troup county is squarely for Trump. I think he’s up 8 or 9 pts well over 50%. GA is ours.

Just voted at my small (IOH) precinct in Savannah. No line, was in and out in less than 10 minutes. I wore red, saw one other wearing red. Very conservative area of the community. Did get a thumbs up from another voter as I pasted my “I Voted” Georgia peach sticker next to the faded, 15 month old, Trump bumper sticker on the back of my black PU.

Lots of Trump/Pence signs seen. None for the corrupt one.

Voted in Gwinnett county. Long line and looked very Republican. Blacks were clearly under represented and so were other ethnic minorities. Unless they voted (maybe several times) in early voting I think Georgia is safe.

Took my momto vote about 11:30AM. No lines at all. The poll people said it was busy earlier and as we were leaving a surge of voters were arriving.

Mr. GG2 votes with his twin sister at a busier poling place. He had to get in touch with his inner Ahole and have a burka babe waving sign and a phony press guy evicted from the grounds.
