About 35 minutes in line this morning

I live in a leaning-red district in Michigan. But I saw several neighbors I know support Obama, and I saw a lot of union trucks in the parking lot (like pipe fitters, etc.) There are three union-related ballot proposals so hopefully that'll draw out union members.

I am in a very red district, and it was about a 35 - 40 minute wait. Good to see so many people voting.

I live in a town of 2200, and I've so far been waiting 45 minutes. Not even in sight of the voting judges.

In case there was a longer wait. But I was lucky.

Stick with it! It'll all be worth it tonight!

My worry is that red districts like mine will have shorter waits than blue districts, and therefore more Romney voters will make it through the lines.
