Romney is campaigning on election day?

I always thought it was more or less an unwritten tradition that candidates didn't campaign on election day. You know, while people are actually voting.

Is this a new thing?

All of the people working to help Romney campaign or listening to him will not be helping get out his vote, so campaign all day distract your base only will help us.

heavy Republican turnout there ...

Wonder where the locations are of his events tomorrow, see how it ties up traffic in the area. I'm gonna look into it and call the Mayors etc ... make sure it doesn't impede peoples access to their voting locations. Squeaky wheel and all ...
