How was turnout at the polls this am ?
I got there about 8:45 am and was the 69th Dem to vote. There was no line, no waiting for either party.

1. I voted at 6:40 this morning...
and was the 9th overall voter at my polling place.
There was only one scanning machine, so I can't tell the split between (D) and (R).
One (D) and one (R) were ahead of me in line.

As of the 2009 elections, there were 1,195 voters registered to that polling place (210 R, 543 D, the rest unaffiliated or other).

2. Duh. We only had one scanner, too, so I was the 69th
VOTER, not the 69th Dem. Thanks for making me put my thinking cap on. I'll blame it on multi-tasking since I'm at work.

Not sure how many registered voters in my district. We had to redistrict this year and this is the 1st time voting under this new scheme

3. I just got back a little while ago. Voted at about
2 pm. It was me, a younger man also Dem. and an older man Rep there at the same time. When I was leaving there was another car pulling up.

4. I think the two people at the Democratic table in my town
were asleep... not joking.

The Republican table was a bit busier.

5. I voted at 6:30, and was #10.
It was pretty quiet.

6. My town had about 6-7% Democratic turnout
The state overall had about 20% turnout.
