Wow - Have never seen the voting site so packed

[Brian Tymchak]

The parking lot at our YMCA was completely full, the access road to the YMCA was full with parking both sides, and there was a waiting line of cars to turn in from the main road. I've never seen such a large turnout. Ended up driving on past and will try again after work.

Took me 20 minutes this morning (6:50 - 7:10). Here's hoping the OP gets back and votes.

[John K Jordan]

I was worried about that here so I went on the last day of early voting - no waiting. My wife is headed out now. Maybe she should take a folding chair and a lunch!

[Rod Sheridan]

Wow, that has to be a good sign for voter turnout.

In my opinion, the higher the better.

Good luck today my friends, hopefully you'll select the best choice for your country..............regards, Rod.

And that's why I voted by mail!

It shouldn't be like that - it discourages people from voting.

There will likely be a crush at opening bell, at lunch, and at closing. The same precinct may have no line at all during off peak?

Shouldn't be like that...?? With absentee ballots, mail-in, early voting, and some even advocating for internet voting, it has gotten very easy.

I heard an interesting argument that we make voting too easy. For the sake of brevity, the premise was the easier it is to vote, the less contemplation and seriousness the voter applies to the decision.

Regardless, GO VOTE!! If you don't, you surely get the government you deserve. (No politics, just civic duty.)

Thank God I voted the last day of early voting. What ever you do please do go back & vote. This is probably the most important election in the history of our great country. The entire future of our children & grand children depends on the outcome of this election.

This is true only if you are in a state without a strong commitment to one party or the other. Florida, Ohio -- definite yes, Most of the nation, if you believe the networks and polls and all the TV and newspaper talk - they really don't need my vote at all (for president).

I live in a small rural village, the heaviest lines are before and after working hours. I went to the polls at 10 A.M. and had a 5 minute wait in line. I have seen much more crowded polls many times. The other thing a have noticed is that the number of yard signs is way less, almost like the choices are not people to be proud of.

[Belinda Barfield]

I went to early vote last Wednesday. The wait was 2.5 hours. I left thinking it would be better later in the week. I stood in line 3.5 hours on Friday and voted. Largest turn out I have ever seen here. Most of the local politicians were incumbents running unchallanged. The gentleman in line ahead of me has been in the area for 6 months. He asked my opinion about the local vote. I was honest and told him that in 20 years, no matter how I have voted at the local level, I have not experienced any change in my day to day life here. We still have a ridiculous crime rate no matter who is wearing the Sheriff's badge, and so on and so forth.

[Dennis Peacock]

I voted today...went at 9 AM. Walked in, signed in, walked over, voted and walked out. Less than 90 seconds to start the voting process. I'm sure it won't be the same story after 4 PM today.

[Bruce Page]

LOML & I voted on the 24th. It took all of 15 minutes start to finish.

[Rod Sheridan]

Good for you Bruce.

I just saw an article about people putting their "I Voted" sticker on the headstone of Susan B Anthony.

Did you receive a sticker?

We don't get one when we vote...............Regards, Rod.

[Ken Fitzgerald]

I voted today. I took longer to ask a worker what my precinct number was than it did to vote. No stickers offered.

[Howard Garner]

Voted when the pools opened at 7:00a today.
A good line. I was #42 at my precinct.
Took about 25 min from in line to out the door.
The line looked to be about 20 min long when I left.
Any delay was in checking ID's and signing the register, enough voting machines that the wait was less then a minutes.

So even if your in a location that requires you to wait, go and vote.
We can make up tomorrow when it is over.
