I got to my polling place about 6:58, and was 20th in line. The guy in front of me was there with his Dad, and was getting a provisional ballot. He'd moved away and reregistered by mail, and never got a samle ballot. He'd also applied for absentee, and didn't get that ballot either. So he would have been voting provisional at his old site, but L.A. had condensed five sites, including mine, into this one church across the street from the doughnut shop. Much confusion for him.

I saw one other provisional ballot while I was there.

One of the pollworkers said at 7:01, as we were lining up to be verified in the registry, that there were more voters then in the room than there had been for the last election all day.

By the time I got into the booth, there were probably 50 people lined up.

I voted:

Yes on Recall and removal of Gray Davis from office
Tom McClintock for Governor
Yes on 53
Yes on 54
Yes on Cambodian doughnuts.

Its more crowded because there are less voting locations open. Adding to the perception of a large turnout?
