These folks are telling some of the darndest things going on at some of the polling places.
A couple people were complaining of how the touchscreen voting booths were arranged in such a way that others could see who you are voting for.
They a man wearing a Bush?Cheney button was told to remove it as he couldn't wear it in the polling place and yet there were others there who had Kerry buttons on! and weren't harrassed!
Also a poll worker was overheard telling a voter how to change thier vote from Bush to Kerry as the poolworker was basically telling the voter they voted inncorrectly.
someone needs to call the nbc hotline (for voting help) and ask them to come help program your VCR, figure out your cell phone, pump gas, or explain the ATM machine. give me a break.
I voted on the west side in Woodlawn. At 6:58 a.m., 2 minutes before opening, there were about 100 people ahead of me. In 18 years of voting at this location, I have never witnessed this kind of a turnout. I agree that privacy with these diebold machines is a bit of a problem. No intimidation noticed, just a collective frustration by people on their way to work that were hampered by the long lines and changes from paper ballots to the electronic ones.
