red or blue
Imponderable. "Downstate" Illinois, which is normally red, but I'm seeing far too many His O-ness signs.
I was voter 58, at 7am this morning. No paper trail -- a scanner looked over my sheet, and dropped it into a locked box. I can't even tell if my vote registered properly.
My wife voted midday, said there was a line, which means it's a busier election day than normal.
I got to my polling place at around 8:30 and finally got to vote a little after 9:00 am, I am in Tennessee, but I am pretty sure my precinct is purple or *gasp* blue. I saw a guy with an 0bama cap, the black poll workers didn’t say anything to him. The crowd was about 50% black and/or young people, the rest middle aged white and older, near as I can tell it was probably 50/50 at that time, in an area that if the pundits are right would have been 70/30. I was the 44th voter at my machine if those numbers are average then there were about 176 votes by 9:00 am.
