I anticipate an easy day. I'll be going over to my polling spot in the early afternoon before the folks get off of work. It's worked in the past for me. Besides, my wunnerful wife is behind the table on this one, (poll volunteer). So, if I see any shenanigans, ( self appointed teabagging poll watchers) I'll be hanging out with a camera till the polls close.
Where your "Forward" buttons when you vote, y'all!

I suspect that tomorrow (7th) will hold more than a few surprises.

At my polling place, The Laurel Avenue Church o' Christ, the crowd seemed much smaller and less motivated than in '08.

Is your neighborhood primarily red or blue?

Red-ish Purple. (Mauve?) Lots of blacks and Latinos. But, the rednecks are still the largest demographic and shrinking.

Mine is right down the middle. I am in the NYC suburb which is part farm lands and part McMansions.
The McMansioniers want Romney, the working guys want Obie.

I'd say the mix was about the same as '08, just a shorter line. But, really, how can you tell?

I was 20th in line when the polls opened. Not a Gopper in sight either.
