There were points that I thought he very well might have been running his campaign.

Wife and I also just voted too. I took the day off work (I need to burn some before end of the year) and so the kids came along. I felt it was some good exposure and around where I live the line was only about 5 mins.

Our lines everywhere are an hour and a half, even with the amount of absentee ballots.

It was cute though, one of the moms had her two kids with her and let them take turns touching the screens in the voting booth. Great exposure, I was glad to see that.

mine only took me about 10ish minutes altogether. maybe fifteen. the guy in front of me had to fill out a new voter registration card or some such nonsense because he had moved and didn't properly fill out his infoz or something, idk. actual voting took five min, anyway. and now i have this bitchin' sticker.

Mine took awhile due to the 4 people running the show not being able to read or operate anything with an on/off switch.

Once I got past that, all was well.

Ive been hearing everywhere around here, all the schools and stuff, were pretty well crowded. Most people I hear waited about a half hour or so to vote. Not too bad I guess. I didnt vote though, just worked...more important to me. Equipment pouring in for rebuild :cool6:

my name wasn't in the little book thing the old lady had, even though i had a card saying i was properly registered and should in fact be voting at that very location, and even though i checked the election commission website to verify my correct registration and polling place

i discovered all this after waiting 20min in line, so then i had to fill out one of those stupid fucking provisional ballots, get BACK in line, and wait longer before finally getting my ballot

made me 45min late to an 80min class, GG ;\

Same happened to me. They wanted me to go vote in another fucking city because I wasn't registered to the place literally 30 seconds away from me which is literally my back fucking yard...

I wouldn't call it a landslide but it was a clear victory.

Anything over 320 is technically a landslide.

I was referring to the popular vote percentages. But you gentlemen carry on.

1984 was a landslide. 2008 was not. It was, however, a majority victory - something Clinton could not accomplish. Well done, Obama.
