At 4:30 PM, I was the solitary person voting in my precinct

As I live in a precinct with a lopsided GOP majority, I take that as a good sign.

Just got to describe a sign seen at the Rally this past weekend "Tea parties are for little girls with imaginary friends".

5. Ah The Memories...

Back "in the day" (30 years ago) when I moved into this area it was crimson red...my wife and I went to vote in a primary and asked for a Democratic ballot. The judge looked at us real funny and said "say again?"...I again said I wanted a Democratic ballot. The judge looked honestly befuddled, he said he had never had anyone ask for a Democratic ballot before. Today this district is true blue. Things do change. Just takes some organizing and patience.

8. May be a good sign

all day long people have been posting about their polling places and the heaviest voting is at Dems and the emptiest at repubs..I've been of mind that most of the TP's are not registered voters and haven't a clue as to how to do it...(except the rich organizers that is)

On my way home from work, I passed many polling places that are low income areas...they were packed and I've never seen these places with cars parked in the lots...just a few which were the workers...
