I’d like to hear reports about the lines at the polling places. My hubby is a poll watcher and he promised he’d give me reports this morning.
That would be great lily....nikos is looking for real information today! Can’t get any better than being right there!
Please keep us informed!!
No lines outside the school where I live. This is the third presidential election I’m voting in and this is only the first time I’ve been there early. There was a decent group of people milling about inside; nobody talking politics though.
Poll watchers — good — is there, I wonder, a central poll watchers FR thread to report issues / experiences? I’m hampered (mental image of me in laundry hamper :-/ )
Please ping me if and when you get those reports from your hubby and thank him for being a much-needed poll watcher!
Lilypad there is a thread about all different polling places across the country people reporting in!!! Go check it out YUGE turn outs!!!!
“I’d like to hear reports about the lines at the polling places.”
Twice a week I have a crafting group that meets in a building where there is a polling place. During early voting, which ended last Thursday, it was impossible to find a parking place, and lines were extremely long most of every day
Today I stuck my head in a few times to check it out, and it was much quieter, with people being able to vote almost immediately. (Eastern TN.)
Coming to this thread kind of late, but...
I was at my polling place bright and early, and when the polls opened it seemed there were 30 people there, consistently 3x more than previous presidential election days.
Might I add that in this deep-blue neighborhood (yes, I know Hillary Clinton won CA) I saw a significant number of people at the polls wearing red of some sort.
