I got to my polling location at 6:45 and there were about 50-75 people waiting. Doors opened at 7:00 and I was out of there at 7:45 or so. When I left, there were 200 or so in line. Oh, our county reported 30% of registered voters voted early also.
I’m in a pretty conservative suburb of Atlanta. Like someone else mentioned, everyone was pretty somber, like there were in there to do a job and get it over with. I think there was only one or two people having any real conversation.
I heard on the radio that all of the counties surrounding Atlanta were showing a 45-60min line. The counties of Atlanta (Dekalb and South Fulton) had about a 10-20 min line. I don’t know exactly what this means, but most of the Obama support will come from the Atlanta counties.
I see lots of lines on TV. It looks like they have it right, for once.
