I have an excuse, I didn't register.

Early voting = hour and a half wait.

Voted today. No wait.

Republicans can vote tomorrow.  ;)

I did this morning.  Very busy and brisk.  The had radio reports this morning that there were lines of 50 people waiting at 6:30.  This one is flushing out people who may have been not so interested even a few years ago, so the Colorado election officials already warned people that they should not expect a final count this evening.  The days of calling it early are over in most places, although the polls seem to be favoring Obama.  That may not mean anything tonight, but that is the interesting part of it.  The problem a lot people are bemoaning is that so much focus has been on the presidential and senate campaigns, that people are not that aware of local ballot questions and city and state office races.  I can confess to having that problem this morning.

I voted early last week, and I'm just watching the chaos at the polls today from afar  :o

1 1/2 hour wait in NYC - even the mayor stood on line. People seemed happy to wait; well worth it for the chance to help make a change

Spoken like a Chicagoan.  I just got back.  Mid-morning and mid-afternoon are basically no-wait times.

I'm just astonished at the turnout here. 47% of all registered voters already voted early here in Guadalupe County yet there's still heavy turnout at the polls. Same in Comal and Bexar (San Antonio) .

Did the deed early this morning.

We normally get together Tuesdays for band practice, but tonight one of the guitar players wants to stay home and watch the election unfold.

Hell man, I'm ready to rock and you want to bag practice so you can watch another couple hours of TV  >:(

What say ye... will we know anything tonight?
