Not what I expected

At least not from what we had been hearing.

For the most part, voters across the Triangle found short waits and few problems as they cast ballots Tuesday.

Even during the lunch hour, polling places were not overly crowded. In most cases, the voting process worked smoothly.

One e-mail to WRAL.com said:

"I just wanted to let you know that my husband voted at Millbrook Elementary School (in Raleigh) this morning. It took him a total of 15 minutes to drive there, vote and drive home," she wrote. "There was no wait at all. I wonder if the early voting lines helped for today or were we all duped into believing we would have to wait 4 to 5 hours if we didn't vote early?"

1. So many people voted early in NC,

I think it's kind of difficult to say what a light turn out today means. I work in a building which houses one of my county's polling places, and traffic has been very light today. The early voting sites however, were slammed with people every day.
