Oops. East coast...

Many districts open their polls at different times. Dixville Notch and another tiny town whose name escapes me, both in New Hampshire, opened at midnight, and results are already in: Kerry - 35, Bush - 21, Nader - 1. Yes, 57 total votes.

edit to add: Right the fuck on, Dixville Notch! Oh, and NYC opened its polls 15 minutes ago.


Jesus, edit YET AGAIN to correct that: Bush - 35, Kerry - 21, Nader - 1. Crap on a crutch, leave it to stupid Fox Morning News here to get it backwards, and against their own freaking candidate. Morons.

so, FUCK YOU DIXVILLE NOTCH!!!

Oops. Sorry, wax. That was for the tubaguy.

he he he. New York's is open, waxangel said so....

Indy opened at 6.

I just voted and it was awesome!

1 vote for Nader? He's already got almost 2% of the vote!

*whines*

Dammit. Why didn't WE open as early as 6:00? I hate waiting.

Hell, I'm just gonna repost it, in case people don't notice my edit.

Stupid Fox Morning News here got it backwards. It's Bush - 35, Kerry - 21, Nader - 1 in Dixville Notch and that other little town. Leave it to the morons at Fox to get it backwards in favor of the candidate they oppose.

35 minutes until I can go vote.

Same here.

they didn't have any stickers when i went! they all thought it sounded like a good idea, but had never seen such a thing before.

what the hell?

Gotta get ready to go vote! Can't wait!

I forget which polling cernter they were talking about, but someone on CNN just mentioned that at one district in Florida they've already had 45 voters go through, with another thirty or forty waiting outside. That's 10% of the total eligible voters in the district -- in the first hour.

Looks like we're going to have a hell of a turnout today.

I was the 49th voter, and I left around 7:50 AM. That's about one voter per minute. Not too shabby.

Some small towns open at 1201am. Dixville Notch NH, usually closes their poll by 130am because everyone has voted. I posted this in the "Just voted" thread but if you havent been there yet, their results are something like 47-GWB 9-JFK.

Using their results as a forecast, they have been right about 19 out of 20 times. Of course this is nor reason for anyone to give up, or become complacent. If you havent voted yet there's still oots of time to make a difference or cement the decision.

Correction Dixville Notch results 19-GWB 7-JFK. Also Hart's Location posted 15 each.

This link to the largest NH paper is running slow due to the election traffic.

I just voted. Score one for the little guy because I voted the Green Party guy for NJ House of Representatives in my district. He's not going to win, but sometimes I believe in the underdog.

polls are open in central where i am right now

and a fresh layer of snow

polls opened at 7 this morning here and i was there before anyone else showed up. i ended up being 6th to vote, as i couldn't take my cigarette into the booth with me.

i just voted in repub-fuck-state nebraska and i made sure to choose not to retain the judges. give them the boot and have them find REAL work. haha. oh, my little vote that could went to all democrats. maybe NE will become the bastion of democracy and have hordes of fighter jets from the SAC base with a donkey decal on the wings as they swoop down upon scurrying* neocons.

I NEVER vote to retain judges. Fuck 'em.

man, I bet that guy gets some dirty looks when he walks into the local saloon...
