Did you vote yet?

[jazzcat]

Hubby and I did early voting about two weeks ago!

[lizbud]

Yes I voted. The polling place was busy, but not overly
crowded. Since I retired from my job last Friday, I can pretty
much pick my time to vote.

[smokey the elder]

I'll vote after work. The polling place is a block from my house!

I just now returned - it took about an hour and I am also used to walking in and out - but this is good to see so many folks voting.

Dennis requested his absentee from Texas but it did not arrive yesterday So, he booked an earlier flight, leaving right after the funeral today so he will have to go right to the board of elections, sign an affadavit that he did NOT receive his absentee in Texas, and they will allow him to vote. This will be a record year for going to great lengths for him to vote!!! Hopefully next year, we will have early voting in Ohio, to avoid this problem. I did notice that the local precinct had him listed as requesting an absentee - so they are really on the ball to prevent any duplication - a good thing!

Voted.

1 hour wait.

People wait much longer than that to ride a ride at Disney World.

My husband and I are planing on going around 2 or 3. We are hoping that if we get there in between lunch hours and the end of a work day we won't have as long a wait.

Plus we both are doing a last min look at certain items that we are not sure about, yet. We are 100% sure on most things, the Pres. Sheriff, Senate, etc etc.. It's some of these amendments, that we still have questions about. I hate going in there not fully ready, but I'm sure there are a lot of people just like us out there. Some of them where not covered clearly, so it left that HuH? feeling.

Also, I know other countries do this (but can't remember which ones) but I think we should all GET THE DAY OFF so we can be sure and have plenty of time to vote. Sorry, just my sorry excuse at trying to get out of work.

I called my mom last night to find out when she and dad were going to the polls and she said they were going together after she got out of work. Dad's already at work when mom gets home, so I asked if he was going in late.

Nope. General Motors gave the guys the day off here in Lansing encouraging them to go vote!

I want the day off!

I voted at 9:00 and there were only a few people in line ahead of me. It went very quickly! The volunteer said they had been really busy earlier but had slowed down tremendously. I guess I got lucky. I hope it gets busy for the rest of the day and everyone goes to vote!

Between the walk down the street a few blocks, and the wait in line, all in all it took hubby and I less than 20 minutes.

[zippy-kat]

Voted!

[Edwina's Secretary]

Because we moved right in the middle of everything, my husband and I voted by absentee ballot.

BTW Debbie....most European countires vote on Sunday....(sorry! )

[Corinna]

Hubby ,son and I went at 9aam. It was a little busy took about 30 mintues . then about 5 minutes dodging high school kids. (we vote at the school)

[lovemyshiba]

Yep

Just got back--we waited in line for about 45 minutes, it wasn't too bad. I noticed so many moms there with their children, a lot of them were expaining what was going on to them, and the babies were all sleeping!!

[trayi52]

Just got back from voting.
