This will be a running thread for morning anecdotal observations of voting in Ohio. What are you seeing at the polls?

If you are in a predominantly democrat district, what does the crowd look like in comparioson with 2008 and in past election years?

Howie "the Screamer" Dean just introduced Election F.U.D. meme in Ohio for Cuyahoga County On "Morning Joe". Lady put a paper ballot in the scanner and it didn't work.

So mark it down. Dems claim election fraud @ 11:28 AM in Ohio.

They are setting up the "We was robbed in Ohio AGAIN" meme!

Worling for local TP in Portage Co. Never seen a turnout like this, people are leaving and coming back later because lines are so long. If I had to judge, I’d say 60 percent are taking our info & thanking us. Portage went to Obama 54/46 in 08. Feeling very confident.

Hinckley, OH, voting was uneventful, nothing resembling a line, but busy. Double checked paper tape against all screen selections—all okay. But lots of ppl coming in and out, so busy.

I just returned about 1/2 hour ago from voting. It took me longer to walk there and back than I spent in the place (like my husband said earlier, we live within sighting distance of our polling spot). Anyway, I asked one of the workers how it’s been, and she said busier than usual, but she also said that it was coming in bursts here and there. It was very busy before 9 this morning, and has kind of ebbed and flowed. This is a heavily Republican area—southeast Ohio, Gallia County, bordering W.Virginia.

I am in Stark County OH - about an hour south of Cleveland. It went for Obama in 2008 - but it’s more of a swing county. The area where I live is more R - I had a short wait (just a few people ahead of me). I have never waited at all in previous elections. For some reason another precinct that voted in the same building had a pretty long line - I have never seen that before. Hopefully a good sign.

We are in Lawrence Twp, Stark County, and we drove by on voting station on our way to ours...the parking lot was packed at the one we drove by (10:40 am). There were cars in the lot at ours, we got there at 10:45 and were out at 11:15. Lines were steady, as more people came...did not look like any slack. We are in what I perceive is generally a Republican area, not in the town/city. Pray that turnout in areas of Stark are really good...Stark has been a bellweather for Ohio. Go Romney!

Our district leans heavy to the Democrats. Lots of union-types. The trick to blending in is to have a look on your face like you've been sitting on a tack for an hour, and somebody owes you something.

Even with all that, the Romney signs on my block outnumbered the Obama signs 13 to 3.

I got the last empty spot in the parking lot, and that was getting there before 6:30am. There were big lines at the machines this morning.

I hope and pray it is a good day for America!

Well, i’m back. I voted at 1000, was #157 and walked right up to the table,voted—Romney/Ryan/Mandel/No on tas levys,
done in less than 10 min.

However. My precint was moved to a church(united church of christ) due to my neighborhood school being rebuilt. It
was combined with other,apparently obamma precints with
long,long lines for them.Seemed chaotic.

The church has an electronic sign as part of their main church sign. Messages included “Rape is not a form of contraception”. I am furious. WTF? Doesn’t change one vote, i’m sure, but damn I loathe these cretins!! Oh, I’n in akron
and i love my house and neighborhood, but i’m getting out.Soon.
