Or, how 'bout Susan Estrich foaming at the mouth and/or Tucker Carlson hanging himself with his bowtie
"Sorry, the voting machine broke. You'll have to use a paper ballot."
"Hmm, well, ok. May I have a pen?"
"No, we only have one pen. You'll have to wait."
- Election Day 2004, New York City, 6:30 AM
(polls opened at 6)
Maybe it's because we all work for The Eeeeevil Halliburton.
I live in a small town here I am 10 minutes from the polling place....there were quite a few there....quite a few.
I voted at 6am. I saw too many demonrats. Bush will carry VA though!
LOL! For a second there I misread your post as saying: "Just pulled my lever 4 MORE TIMES!"
Ok, but she's always foaming at the mouth.
I came back from voting less than a half hour ago. I live in Fairfax County in Northern Virginia, in Congressman Moran's district. I waited about half an hour to vote. The line was pretty long. I was surprised, since I got there shortly after the polls opened at 6 am. One person in the line said he had never seen the line this long at 6 am.
People waiting to vote weren't really talking to each other too much, other than guiding people to the right line, since two precincts vote at the same school. The Republican and Democrat volunteers were out front as usual, passing out fliers and putting up signs. The Republican volunteer passing out fliers was this American of Asian decent, and I gave her a compliment as I was coming out of the school. I didn't see any people in my age group (18-30), it was mostly people in their 30's or older.
Oh well, I'll try to share in everyones election day experiences and console my self with the knowledge that I DID vote for President Bush...
True 'cuz she's always on the losing side
I voted as the polls opened at 6:00 in Norwalk, CT. No agitators at my polling place. There were about 50 people in line, and it took about 10 minutes to vote. From what I could tell, folks were in good humor and proud to be there.
One good thing about this Election Day is there is NO COMPLACENCY here. I detected a little bit of that leading into the 2000 Election.
Hello Meg!!
I voted this morning at 6:00 am with my husband. 2 votes for Bush/Cheney - New Jersey.
>Virginia could be worth watching, too.
If I miss my guess, Kerry won't even get close in my state. In my area, there are lots and lots of B/C bumper stickers, and in my trip to the Tidewater area this weekend, the preponderance of B/C signs was making me positively giddy.
I agree, Virginia will be worth watching.
Most likely because CT is not a battleground state. It will be a different story in the battleground states.
will be voting around 2 pm - will let the board know if the UN is monitering my polling place (snicker). Great weather.
One nice touch, I had given my Bush/Cheney yard sign to a friend that lived right next door to the polling place. He had it up in his yard as I drove up. The last sign any of the voters would see before voting.
3 Bush supporters going to vote in 10 minutes, just noticed dixville notch and harts corner both in N.H. voted for Bush polls closed there. Hey a win is a win.
