Arlington, TX, quiet at the polls. Lots of friendly Zelder (R) supporters, only one person for Obama. Zedler folks said it was quiet all that morning, but Arlington is a "bedroom community" so we can expect a sharp uptick in the afternoon, evening.

Poll worker checked my voter reg. card, ID, asked if I wanted to vote electronically or on paper. I insisted, "Paper. I want a record of my vote."

She smiled; I sense she knew exactly what I meant.

Straight R ticket. All good to go. Hubby voted. Five minutes max start to finish.

Northeast Pa, a traditional red area of PA. We arrived at polling location 7:30 this morning. Did not get out of there until 10:00am. Compare this to what I thought was a large turnout in 2004 when we waited an hour to vote. Discussions while waiting to vote, and just a quick snapshot of cars with bumper stickers looked like 2-1 in McCains favor. I’ve been in Pa since 1991 and this is the first time I really feel we are going to take it. I also feel Murtha and Kanjorski are going to lose. Wouldn’t that be nice
