Just returned from the polls. No wait what so ever. Spoke with a elections official that told me they had long lines early this morning and were expecting lines after 4p today. This is the first election since NC went to expanded early voting so that's made a huge difference with the wait times today....at least in my county. 40+% of the registered voters in the county voted early. Even with that my daughter and I were 502 and 503 today. This turn out is gonna be close to a record here.

Oh.......my county went back to paper ballots.....easier, faster, less chance for confusion and no hanging chads. If you don't understand that by putting a black mark by a name is how you vote for that person.....you don't need to vote, you need to be institutionalized. Cheesy

Planning on watching the returns come in with plenty of pizza and a couple beers tonight. Good stuff.

I did my duty ... I also wrote in Jonny's name ... I DO want to be first ladyish!

I was getting a hit as I was pulling into the parking lot, so I was sucking on my magic tank. One of the workers saw me, and asked if I was ok. I told them yes, but I just had to suck the O₂ until the "attack" was over. He asked if it was a cluster attack! He told me to park right next to the door, and sit there as long as I needed to. As the hit started to come down, he came over, and then he sent over one of the officials, and the official brought a ballot out to me in the car! NO wait, (except to do battle) and never had to leave my car! How cool is that?

I got to talk to the guy that recognized the hit, and he said that his brother, in New York, has clusters, so he knew what he was seeing! He gave me his brother's name an email addy. I will see if I can contact him.

It is amazing what this condition can do, on the plus side! (There HAS to be a plus side, right?

(OK, I'll take off my Pollyanna shoes now ...)

BUT, I did vote!

Well, look at the bright side -- in about an hour the polls will start closing and it'll be a long night or a short night.. Right now I'm watching a "House" marathon and we're getting ready to put some steaks on....

May even have a glass of wine.

Two long years -- this is kinda a downer for some reason - guess it's the first stages of withdrawal....

Voting's reportedly heavy here. El tells me that most of her classmates who are eighteen planned to go vote immediately after school. Seems to be a lot of interest among the young people. I don't think El's senior class could have picked a better year to take Government and Economics. Wink

Could be an interesting evening here...this is the reddest of red states, so I have little doubt how the vote will come down, but the Democratic caucus earlier this year drew thousands of people--and it went 80 % for Obama. It may be somewhat closer than expected.

Big issue for me, though, is our local and statewide races. Not to mention that there is a certain weasel candidate for US Senator that I took great pleasure in voting against. Whatever happens in the Senate race, though, toe-tappin' Larry Craig is history.

Best,

George

How about some predictions?

I predict Obama 50.6 McCain 48.1

Obama 325 Electoral votes

154 lawsuits filed over voting issues.

Predictions?

I'll go out on a limb and say 338/200 Obama. Could be conservative, but I don't think we'll see anything as lopsided as 400.

Maybe I'll go watch the dervishes spinning over at Faux News until some more results come in. Wink
