Good news, I think.

My voting precinct is in diehard Red country. Before early voting there was a long line the entire day. But, someone just came back and reported that the place was practically empty. The poll workers said it was busy in the am, and will probably be busy again in the evening, but I take this as a good sign that polls that have Hillary leading are going to hold through to the end.

from my wife saying there is a long line to vote.
We are in SoCal in a blue precinct. There are hardly any lines. Too bad CA doesn't matter.
