Thanks for asking...I actually live in the Norristown area which is about 40% White, 35% Black and 25% Hispanic. If I had to guess, D’s probably outnumber R’s in registration.

However, most of the people that started trickling in when I was just about to vote were white, older. In fact, I had to pick up my neighbor who is a Marine veteran in his 70’s to come vote with me.

Hope this helps! God bless America and Donald Trump!

Hubby and I voted at 8:15 in Lower Paxton, a burb of Harrisburg— so lots of state D workers/retirees, but lots of Trump signs in the area with a few Hillary signs. No real line but stated by watcher as “steady”. We were about ~120 for the day (they had 2 books running).

Interestingly, no Dem signage near polling place, but all the R candidates stuff up. The Trump sign was bent to the ground, which I corrected. Noted the Toomey sign on the way out, also bent to the ground, which I did not correct.

I voted straight pubby with the exception for 1 down ticket dem, so my electronic vote won’t be switched.

Good idea.

East Bangor — small, 900 population, not prosperous boro — about 15 people at 9 am. Usually there are 2 or 3 people. But we are required to give our party, and they write it on the list by our names, and I could see the list as I was waiting. At least 75% D’s. This is a Democrat area, so no surprise there. But it will go the usual Democrat way, unless lots of Dems are crossing over.

I should have written I was voter #96 at 9 am — actually I think that is pretty high for that time of day. But I haven’t ever paid attention to what # I am.

McGuffey SD in SW Pa does not allow any political input in the HS, thus ... the grads are socialist by indoctrination.

I've manned MY poll for three cycles (I was running) and I saw ONE girl that had graduated from McGuffey in the last 10 years ... all voters at my poll are 30ish and older

There are four other polling places in our school district and a year ago I was assisting my friend in a write in campaign and his kids manned the other four locations and THEY said they saw TWO grads

Southwestern PA, Johnstown, voting heavy at my polling place. Johnstown historically Democrat (Murtha home town). Hard pressed to find a Clinton sign in entire town. Trump signs everywhere.

If Luzerne goes the way it appears - I’m calling PA for Trump.

Just returned from voting. Wow. MAGA.

This is the largest turnout I have ever witnessed in my 12th District precinct. Ran into Keith Rothfus while waiting in line (1-hour). He is a good man and a good rep.

The line snaked around the building and out to the rear road (about 320 feet). Parking was difficult, but people were polite.

I was voter #912 at 11:34AM. That exceeds most general elections. I believe this is the monster vote they were talking about. The length of the line did not change from the time I arrived and until I left.

BTTT.

I voted in Mechanicsburg, PA, south central PA, Silver Spring Township at 845 am. I was in line roughly 30 - 40 minutes. Fairly conservative area. A family I knew came up and I chatted with them, but I know they are Hillary voters from facebook... some other woman was wearing a Hillary button. I think probably 75 R 25 D in our area.

Hello All,

I live south of Pittsburgh, Bethel Park, Pa which is a mostly conservative/republican area. I was at the poll this morning about 7:45am which is normal for me. 2008 and 2012, maybe 10-15 cars in the parking lot and no wait time at all.

This year, I would estimate 50-75 cars in the lot and I waited at least 10 minutes to vote. It was the busiest I have seen my polling place, ever.

NO Hillary signs anywhere, at least 4 Trump signs and many other down ballet republicans. There was only one person handing out literature and he was handing out the entire republican ticket.

Chester County, Malvern. Small Borough, got there at 6:15, 6th in line. Lots more showed up by 7. No issues, we still use paper ballots. Love of Trump attire but lots of Wimmen Hillaryites but lots of us Trumpeted as well.. Not a single Trump sign on the premises. Where that was the GOP or theft, it ticks me off. Big line around the lot when I left. One person I know voted a couple of hours later and she was #630..good runout for our little town.

Scarpetta should report that ingenious idea to Donald.
