“Going to be there for the open. Taking my voter registration and my passport. “

How quaint. In California, no ID required. In fact, they are prohibited from asking you for any. You just walk in and say “I’m John Doe, here to vote.” They then look up “John Doe”, check it off, and hand you a ballot.

My husband went to vote at 5:45am, went past two polling places to get to ours in Chesapeake, VA. All three are filled with cars and people lined up around the buildings. Raining outside. He said it looks like a freaking holiday out there, cars everywhere. We’re in McCain country.

That’s good news. With the media declaring the race over and won by That One, I was wondering if our side would turn out.

I do not get the lines either. I have always voted at my precinct on election day at various times of the day (before work, lunchtime, after work ....), and I cannot remember waiting more than ten minutes to vote.

I'm hoping this is good news. We have never waited in line to vote.

If I was standing in line right now I wouldn’t be online. I’ll be leaving in a few minutes to be at the polls when they open at 6 AM. That’s Kansas’ starting time. McCain - Roberts - Jordan - Howe - Vratil - No on electing judges - No on taxes for the health triangle boondoggle. And if we had light rail on the ballot here I’d vote against that, too.

I’m heading to my polling location in a few minutes; will try to report before I go to work. It depends on how long it takes.

I'll be in line within the next 15 minutes. I'm voting McCain, but if I'm exit polled I'll say I supported Hussein...

Not in line yet, but I’m on the west coast and polls don’t open for another 3.5 hours. However, I am going right when they open. I don’t care how long of a line I have to stand in! It’s raining and FREEZING cold here, but the sacrifice will be worth it! I’m expecting a pretty big line only because a lot of people will be trying to get their vote in before they go to work. I would’ve waited until later but my only transportation is with my dh and he has to go to work, so I will join him at the early polls. It will feel GOOD to have my vote DONE AND COUNTED EARLY!

I just can’t sleep tonight. It’s AWFUL! I got off work at midnight and tried to lay down and maybe I caught an hour of sleep, but now I can’t sleep for nothing! I guess I’m anxious for NEVADA to get the vote on!

Thats gotta be tough to hold an umbrella and text at the same time. LOL

Not for a FReeper! :-) We are multi-talented. Heck, I can homeschool, FReep, cook dinner and plan a birthday party all at the same time. Of course the kids are all tied to their chairs and I am drinking heavily today, but don't tell anyone.

Just got home from voting. I went in 15 minutes after the polls opens.

I live in a small rural neighborhood Atlantic County, NJ).The parking lot had about 20 cars. Hard to tell from the faces any indication of how people were voting.

Most are folks that are voting before going into work.
