Getting in line at 6:15 am, I thought it seemed like there were a lot of people ahead of me. An hour an a half later, I got to push the VOTE button on the sinister Diebold voting machine.

Woo. Gimme my sticker!

I have a 2 hours gap between the end of class and work. I hope that gives me enough time!

Whoo! Voting!

Now I don't know what's worse - an hour and half wait in line, or low voter turnout? ;D

During the last Canadian federal election, I went, I voted, I left. All inside five minutes. (my candidate lost :( ).

Seriously - do you have to wait in line to get to the voting machine? Maybe the low-tech paper ballot we use in Canada is not such a bad solution after all. Makes a recount fairly straightforward. ;D

At my local station they had the FILL IN THE BUBBLE with black marker. When done, it gets fed into a scanner and locked away. I waitied about 10 minutes to get to a booth.

I'm in the washington DC area. The polls in Virginia opened at 6am, and it seems that a majority of voting centers had between 50 and 100 people in line before they opened...about a half hour later, there were even more people waiting.

That's a pretty significant voter turnout for a state that is predicted to be "no contest".

The longest I've ever waited to vote before was 10 minutes. Today I waited 90 minutes and arrived for work two hours late. Talk about civic duty!

Makes me glad I took advantage of early voting. Took all of five minutes. 8)

Cruised into my polling place at 8:30AM, no waiting, but there was a steady stream of voters.

My girlfriend volunteered to be an election judge this year. Very cool.

I went for early voting yesterday and waited about 2 hours. Trying to vote early was an exercise in futility the day before Election Day. But I got my sticker! ;D

I arrived at my polling place this morning only to find a very long line. After 5 minutes, an election worker came by and said, "S through Z, come right on in to your table". Oh yeah--for once it ruled to be back in the alphabet. Fifteen minutes later I had my sticker ;D.

Hehe

Poor TC, you look a little like I did when I was much younger. I'd post my pic, but then you'd first laugh at me, and then cry when you saw what you looked forward to becoming. ;D
