Any gossip on turnout?

I went in around 3:30 and it was SLOW.

That is not good news since this means conservatives are not racing to the polls.

The government employees/unions will vote at least moderately because both propositions empower them.

I called several Republicans who did not remember that today was voting day.

If the Republican/conservative base wants results, they really have to learn to get their @ss out to the polls.

Mine was the only signature on the pages out of 60 people.

I did get a zinger in.

The poll worker was giving instructions as to how to successfully complete a vote with the card and tools.

When they came to me, they were about to repeat the whole thing again to me.

I told them, don't bother, I'm Republican so I understood the first time.

Based on smiles and frowns in the room, I knew who were Republicans and who were Democrats. :)

Each member of my family voted at a different time at our local polling place, and there was no more than one other person (other than election officials) when any of us voted. There are six booths, so this is a very small turnout, smallest I can remember.

Ventura County: My husband voted shortly after the polls opened this morning. He was the 16th person to vote in our precinct. I waited until 5:00pm to go vote so I could check the turnout. I was the 116th person to vote. Our precinct (two small precincts combined) has 1092 voters. I asked the clerk about the low turnout and she said they had a lot of absentee ballots.

With three hours left to go when I voted, I hope a lot more people voted on their way home from work!
