Voted early, as I do every election. I noticed two things that I did not see on previous occasions; a police car in front of the building and a much larger number of black voters than usual. The mood inside the building was subdued and quiet and no eye contact was made between blacks and non-blacks.
The prediction has been made that there will be riots by blacks if Obama should lose. My personal expectation, and I hope that Im dead wrong, is that there will be acts of intimidation regardless of who wins or loses and that they will take place during the last days of the election when the situation becomes critical. Riots if Obama loses and riots to intimidate McCain voters. (I guess that was the reason for the police car in front of the voting center.)
It behooves all McCain voters to cast their ballots as early as possible. There is no need for them to risk being in a possible violent situation that could occur during the last days of the election.
I leave it up to you to forward this advice to friends and acquaintances.
This election may very well resemble the first OJ verdict, in terms of cultural disconnect.
I hope some idiot tries to impede my progress to the poll. He will be held at gunpoint until law enforcement arrives.

I believe there will be riots no matter who wins on the 4th.
We live in a society that riots when their team wins the NBA championship.Be on your guard in Detroit,Chicago,Cleveland,Cincinnati,Memphis,Atlanta,LA. Minor stuff in outlying, flyover areas. Obama has his riot in Chicago preplanned
I am planning to go early in the morning before the daylight as well as before the polls which is in my state 6 AM. This also avoids the long lines. Plus gives me time to pray.
