I've been watching the parked cars all day. There have been less cars today than in '04, '02, or '00. FAR less.

I'm getting worried. I don't like this at all.

1. My precinct was light also.
Went around noon, should have been busier. Take heart, weather will lighten up later and I expect good turnout tonight. I can see my polling place from my house.

2. Odd
Dad voted at 7:10 AM today. He was the 9th voter there. There were about 75 people in line behind him.

This is a Repub precinct.

I'm nervous.

(I voted absentee.)

3. i am jittery, too.
Here in SE MI (Macomb County) I think voter turn out was pretty good (by U.S. standards) but, I am worried about Granholm.

The thought of a DeVos governorship (is that even a word?) makes me want to vomit.

6. Detroit is reporting record turnout so far
That's a good sign for Democrats and the defeat of Prop 2.
