DH is coming home from work around 3:00 so we can go over to our polling location together.

Vote & then go to Starbucks (free tall coffee or tea with an "I voted" sticker) & then go to Ben & Jerry's for a free cone from 5-8 pm!!!!

I just read on HCW that a member in Hampton Roads, VA is expecting to have to wait in line 5-6 hours, and that the line is estimated to be between a quarter and half mile long. Insane!

I really hope our polling location is not very crowded because I don't really want to hang out in an old folks home for that many hours today!

That was one of the areas where republicans sent letters for democrats to vote on Wednesday, so either those are all republicans waiting in line, or their dupery didn't quite work, lol.

We just got home, and there was no line at all at my center. Only one gal in front of me when I walked up. The republicans are supposed to vote here tomorrow.

(Only kidding, folks.

I lucked out and have 2 poll centers within walking distance. Since there wasn't a line just yet, I was in and out within 15 minutes. Way cool!

My husband and I voted for Obama a few days ago. :)

I'm going in about an hour or so... my daughter's doing some scantron testing first and then we'll go.

Our lines were surprisingly short! Then again, school had just let out for the day, so parents were probably transporting their kidlets home.

Hey, you're right. It is election day.

Hi: What a great day, we had voted absentee some time back, but its just as exciting anyway, if we ever lose this priviledge we have no to blame but ourselves, we took our stubbs to Starbucks and it was fun to get the coffee for free, for once,

BLESSINGS JANARIE8
