I was happy to see lots and lots of people cramming the polling booths. I did not mind waiting in line for this. Last time, the place was empty for hours at a time, it was quite disappointing.

Was a long line here in Texas too and its Bush country.
I wonder how many 'solid' states will change today. It would be cool to see 3 or 4 states vote totally opposite of what everyone thought.

Went to my polling place at 7:15, voted at 8:30 - longest line I've ever seen since I started voting in 88.

About 90 minutes here, and that was 6:55 this morning. Voter turnout is immense, like nobody has ever seen.

I walked in, showed my registration card, and was led to a booth by some super stud. Less than 5 minutes!
But we had piece of paper and a black marker to fill in the wholes next to the candidates' names. Weird. Like scantrons all over again. Eek!
