Election Day Thread 2008
Liberal? Conservative? Libertarian? It doesn't matter, go vote, get free "food," and discuss the election here.

re: Election Day Thread 2008
I was planning on voting this morning but I woke up late after being up too late for the game last night. I can never fall asleep right away after a game. Anyway, are you guys seeing big lines today?

Vote! Do not listen to the polls remember what happened in 2004. Do not let the media tell you to stay home.
Whoever wins I think both of these guys are one term presidents. |

re: Election Day Thread 2008
I don't think we have to worry about people not turning out to vote. I think voter turnout could be historic.

re: Election Day Thread 2008
Didn't even have a wait in our little backwards precinct. Some guy was standing in the rain waving a McCain banner at me. Weirdo.

re: Election Day Thread 2008
Probably about 40 people outside of my place on my way to work at 7AM. I was going to vote then but didnt think I would make it to work on time. I will vote after work. Hopefully I can get in and out without a long wait.

re: Election Day Thread 2008
I believe there is a law that says you are entitled to 2 hours of your work day (with pay) to go vote.
2.5 hours for me

90 minutes for me. I got there right at 7 am and there was already a line across the parking lot.

I'm going on my lunch break, and I intend to use the full 2 hours.
