so far, i'm registered to vote in 2 towns...should i debase myself to the level of the 'rats and vote 2 times or should i preserve the integrity of my vote and only vote once???
Voted in North Haven at 11am. Not very heavy turnout at that time, but the crowd was heavier than I've seen before & was very steady. Mostly seniors.
My son took my father & himself to vote around 10am. My father commented at that time there was a lot of young voters! Hope the youngins aren't falling for the dummyrat lies!!
Go Bush - Four more years!!!
voted in Westport, town of 25,000 at 6AM, probably at least 7 polling places, it was packed at that time...nothing shifty,...pretty upscale town, however
HEAVY turnout.
I couldn't get into the town hall parking lot at 7AM to vote, so I went back at 11AM when I went to pick up the mail at the PO box.
One hour wait!
I remarked to one person in line that I had not seen it that heavy since Reagan beat Carter and again beat Mondale.
He said, "You weren't here in 1972 then, cause this is even bigger than Nixon-McGovern."
Just voted in Westbrook - a small town on the Connecticut Shoreline. I've been involved in politics for 15 years and have never seen the turnout so heavy. It was a fight to just get into the parking lot. This was at 11:00 AM and not usually a peak hour. I can't imagine what it will be like after 5:30 PM.
So far, about 35% of my district has voted. We may not help elect President Bush but we have Congressman Simmons to re-elect. (yes, I know he can be a RINO but consider the district and the alternative)
Voted in Wethersfield at 10:00. Unfortunately squarely in the 'rats corner but the Mrs. and I did our part.
Interesting side note: there was another registered voter listed at my address. We've gotten junk mail for her before but it's been at least 15 years since she lived in the house, if she lived there at all. I called the local registrar of voters to inform them but all I got was an "I'm busy" voice mail and left a message. Now, CT and my town are firmly blue hell states so I would doubt any shenanigans are going on, but it just goes to show how easy it would be to screw around with the voter roles.
I live in Litchfield County (NW corner of CT). Very heavy turnout in this (slightly red) area of the state. Lots of veterans/military/NRA stickers in the parking lot.
It's a long shot, but we're praying for a Bush upset. With enough "Reagan Democrat" crossovers, anything's possible.
Voted this morning and the lines were unprecedented. All the people there looked too pleasant to all be voting for Kerry! Connecticut may be blue but I don't think it is going to be as big a sweep as the Democrats would like.
Voted in South Windsor at 7:00 a.m. (Gore won 59% of the two-party vote here in 2000). Very heavy turnout. Lines were 5-6 times longer than normal.

Voter turnout is heavy throughout Connecticut as of 1:30 P.M. EST.
