Election Day Open Thread

Click here if you need information on where to vote.

Sounds like turnout is going to be high. Remember, even Democrats acknowledge high turnout favors Republicans.

After you vote, stop by here and let us know about the experience. What state/district are you in? What was turnout like?

For those of you that are Republicans: Did you disenfranchise any poor people or minorities?

For those of you that are Democrats: Are you presently alive?

UPDATE:
Let the fraud begin.

In wards 7, 19, 51 in Philly, PA, the crowds are going wild. Inside several voting locations, individuals have poured white out onto the polling books and the poll workers are allowing voters to go into the polls and vote without first registering. Several individuals are on hand demanding that voters vote straight Democrat.

RNC lawyers have headed to the scene of the incidents, which are occurring in mostly hispanic precinct locations. The District Attorney has also been contacted.

More from the ground: Reports of voter intimidation by son-in-law of Philadelphia City Commissioner in 19th Ward. Carlos Mantos is not allowing Republican poll watchers with valid poll-watching certificates monitor polling places.

Reminds me of my personal experience in Philly in 2004.

  1. For those of you that are Republicans: Did you disenfranchise any poor people or minorities?

    Yes, I personally oppressed four this morning. ;)

    For those of you that are Democrats: Are you presently alive?

    Does that matter to them? Since when does respiration factor into Dem constituency? :D

    Still thinking about sitting out the election? Think again. All of the dire predictions about the true intentions of Democrats can be found on the Internet copies of your election ballots. Vote on Nov. 7th and keep the bums from controlling your govern…

  3. Good morning, Jason. Today’s the day!

    I voted early; straight Republican, so now I can relax and do a lot of praying. :)

  4. As long as there is an estate tax, it is obvious that the dead are being taxed. If the dead can be taxed, then it is just as obvious that the dead have a right to vote.

  5. I’m a voter in Dallas, Texas, and I usually vote Republican. So I guess that means I’ve disenfranchised at least a few illegal aliens and dead people today.

    My district wasn’t crowded, but had a steady stream of voters this morning. Pretty decent turnout.

  7. With my husband being active duty, we voted early by mail. SO I guess I’ll join Gayle in the praying part now too!

  8. I live in the Bay Area, California, but contary to the conventional wisdom around here, I am not a Democrat. Usually I research all the candidates for state offices and vote for 1/2 Democrats, 1/4 Republicans, and I usually write in my younger sister for something.

    This year I just went down the roll and voted Democrat, Democrat, Democrat, Democrat…Got to put a check on power, that’s all there is to it. And yes, though I actually am more ideologically in league with the Governator than with his opponent, I voted for the Dem Angelides because Arnold engaged in the unforgivable sin: he stumped for Bush in 2004. I will not now, nor in the future, vote for any candidate who supporter Bush. (This means you Giuliani and McCain, even if I have to hold my nose and vote for Hillary or Kerry.)

    I also appear to have wasted the 25 bucks I gave to the Ford campaign in Tennessee. But the 25 I gave to Webb in Virginia might have been worth a vote or two in paying for some TV ad time.

    All in all, a great night for me. My first priority for the Dems: investigate and subpena the hell out of Bush’s torture program. No more lies that make us look bad to the rest of the world.
