Thread Name: BS: Lines at the Polls
Subject: RE: BS: Lines at the Polls
One polling place here, and no line. I got back just a little while ago. There were cops directing traffic around the entrance/exit. There were a whole bunch of folks directing people to parking spots. I walked in and thought there was a line, but there wasn't. Told the registration-checking guy my name and other confirmatory info, got my ballot right away, sat at one of the shielded stations and wrote my choices, checked out with the registration person at the other end and stuck my paper ballot in the machine. Getting my foot long $2.99 meatball sub at Subway on the way home took slightly longer, but I'm not complaining about either.

(Now watching TV: Obama is leading 52% to 48% in Indiana, a traditionally Republican state.)
