I live in the semi-affluent Tampa suburb of Brandon and I walked right in and voted, only waiting a minute because the person who walked in ahead of me had the same last initial. The poll workers I chatted with said there was a 2 hour wait at 7am but by 11am it had gone down to nothing- at 2pm when I voted not even all the machines were in use. This is a pretty Repulican area I'd say, Hillsborough Co. only went for Bush by 11k votes in 2000 but I was at Sunday's rally in Tampa with Bush and I think the base is fired up and Bush will win HillCo. by a bigger margin and Florida walking away. Gov. Jeb claims Rep new voters substantially outnumber Dems and I believe it to be true- our unemployment is a lot lower than the national average and the economy is booming, plus with a Hispanic on the ballot for Senator (Martinez) I think a lot of Cuban-Americans are fired up and I don't see them splitting the ticket.

Ack 6-9 more hours and we'll know, I hope.

The dogs, roadblocks, statetroopers and tazers must be working.
