Lines started at 6:00am and were very strong. People I have talked to say they have seen full parking lots at local precincts. Many are seeing young people voting as well.

EVEN IF YOU LIVE IN A “DEMOCRAP” STATE GO VOTE!!

IT IS THE ONLY WAY TO GET REPUBLICANS IN AT *LOCAL* GOVERNMENT LEVELS~!!

AND HAVING THEM THERE INCREASES POWER AND CUTS INTO DEMOCRAP STRANGLEHOLDS

NY AND CA MAY BE LOST CAUSES FOR PRESIDENT, SO MAYBE DEMOCRAP TURNOUT WILL BE LOW- SO GO VOTE FOR LOCAL LEVELS!!!!

AND NEXT TIME AROUND GET TO THE POLLS DURING THE PRIMIARIES WHERE YOUR VOTE HAS 10 OR 100 TIMES MORE IMPACT (very small % of registered voters vote in primaries) THIS IS WHERE WE GET RID OF RINO’S

I live in a tiny town outside Carson City, NV. My husband and I got to the polls at 6:45AM. There were already about 100 people already in line - in the cold and wind. This is our first Presidential election outside of California so we had no idea what to expect.

Once the polls opened it was actually very smooth sailing. They had the lines broken up alphabetically and the people working the lines were very good. Our polling place had the touch screen voting and it seemed to be going very well.

We waited in line for about 15 minutes and once we received our machine cards we walked right up to a machine.

The only major issue is that they are having our entire town vote at the local HS. Between the hundreds of people showing up to vote and the students showing up for school it was a bit of a madhouse. Anyone showing up a bit later won't have to deal with the student traffic but they likely won't be finding a place to park.

On the plus side - most of the bumper stickers in the parking lot were McCain/Palin. =)
