Hubby and I voted at 8:15 in Lower Paxton, a burb of Harrisburg— so lots of state D workers/retirees, but lots of Trump signs in the area with a few Hillary signs. No real line but stated by watcher as “steady”. We were about ~120 for the day (they had 2 books running).
Interestingly, no Dem signage near polling place, but all the R candidates stuff up. The Trump sign was bent to the ground, which I corrected. Noted the Toomey sign on the way out, also bent to the ground, which I did not correct.
East Bangor — small, 900 population, not prosperous boro — about 15 people at 9 am. Usually there are 2 or 3 people. But we are required to give our party, and they write it on the list by our names, and I could see the list as I was waiting. At least 75% D’s. This is a Democrat area, so no surprise there. But it will go the usual Democrat way, unless lots of Dems are crossing over.
Lower Bucks County, Bristol Twp, 12:15 pm voter #low 400’s. Low turnout at time but heavy dem area. Only Trump signs on yards that have any. oh, went to 2 polling stations ‘cause I had to take a lifelong republican to hers. Same #s.
Southwestern PA, Johnstown, voting heavy at my polling place. Johnstown historically Democrat (Murtha home town). Hard pressed to find a Clinton sign in entire town. Trump signs everywhere.
Voted with wife in the Poconos outside Scranton at 7:20.The exit poll was 167 Trump,3 Hildabeast at that time.
I voted in Mechanicsburg, PA, south central PA, Silver Spring Township at 845 am. I was in line roughly 30 - 40 minutes. Fairly conservative area. A family I knew came up and I chatted with them, but I know they are Hillary voters from facebook... some other woman was wearing a Hillary button. I think probably 75 R 25 D in our area.
Lehigh County small rural district.
No where to park this morning at polling place. Went back at 12:30. Was able to park. About 20 people ahead of me and husband. Line behind us was growing. No political signs at all except for the big Trump signs on neighboring houses lawns.
I was number 935! That is the highest number I have ever had. We have approximately 2500 voters registered here from what I can research. About 50% Republican, 35% Democrat.
Everybody was very, very quiet. No chatting like usual.
PLEASE: ANY NEWS ON THAT CENTRAL PA POWER OUTAGE?
DID IT TUEN OUT TO BE NO BIG DEAL?
Meanwhile here’s a cute 5 sec vid of interview of a vote-splitting elderly couple in North Strabane Township...

Everyone I’ve heard from here in Lebanon County is stunned by the large numbers that are turning out.
Big, big turnout here!
Evening update for Abington Library polling location - this is two, count ‘em, two wards voting, both AG candidate Josh Shapiro and Madeline Dean the state rep stopped by - and at 6pm there was no line at all. Moderate volume in a territory that Hillary worked hard with GOTV.
