Post all election day commentary here.

With your host, Charlton Heston.

"This is the day!"

Boss came around this morning asking if everyone voted. One dude said "I'm going after work." Boss said "It's after work." Lucky guy.

Ramming Speed!!

Got in line at 8:15am, half a dozen people ahead of me, and more growing behind me. Guy ahead of me was at the front and the door monitor, tall elderly guy, told him half jokingly to step back behind the blue line on the carpet doorway. The man stepped back over the line while saying "sorry about that, but I better touch the blue, don't want my feet burned".

Everyone in line laughed, a bit of levity is nice at the polls. I asked the poll worker how the turnout was and she stated excellent. That is always a good sign.

I screwed up my mail-in-ballot by not putting my SS number on the envelope before sealing it. I, of course, realized it about 0.5 seconds later. Not wanting to possibly have my ballot disallowed if I cut open or steamed open the envelope, I figured I would go to a physical polling location with it to either get their blessing to open it and reseal it, or just exchange it and vote in person there.

Nope, no physical polling locations. They had early-voting locations, but not today on election day. At least none that showed up with a half hour of scouring various government web sites.

I rectified the situation with no detectable tampering with the envelope, luckily. But what kind of election is it when there is no way to vote in person on election day?

I was in and out in ten minutes; almost every spot for a voter to mark their ballot was occupied. I was number six in a line to load the ballot into the scanner.

2nd in line, out in 10 minutes.

Our polling place is about two minutes from our house, a First Methodist Church. No lines, in and out very quickly

Our county turned blue last election. We are now empty nesters and want to move in the not to distant future but a 2.35% mortgage will be very hard to give up

Early voted on the 2nd week.
Long line, but only took about 20 minutes to get through.

Second person through the door. Zip, pop, done.

In and out in 5 minutes.
Very excited to find out the results
in a few weeks.

I voted…

Voted Saturday, last day of early voting, took 5 minutes. Florida reports quickly, should be the standard for all states. My district changed, was solid R now leans R and maybe we get rid of Castor of Tampa who had a solid D district.

I had to show my ID again...and sign my name. Buncha fascists!!!

You don't have a place to vote on election day?
Seriously? Where?

I have always only voted on election day. Today was no different. I vote within a mile or so of my house.

My voting precinct is red, but in a now blue city and county. The turnout has been frustratingly light at my polling place today.

The previous two weeks, I was at the courthouse for jury duty and the early voting people were there in mass. And I am fairly certain they were voting blue.

The apparent apathy of my fellow conservatives here makes me want to shake some people very hard.

My wife and I went around 10:15 am.
It was busier than I've seen in a good number of years; hopefully that's a good sign, but then again this state is terminally infested with lefties.

Wife and I both voted early today in person.

Number 86 and 87 at my township hall this morning. Workers said it had been steady busy

I voted on the first day of early voting, along with the rest of the old goat’s coffee group. We didn’t want to risk croaking before we cast our ballots.
