Already did my civic duty by early voting... I'll be goddamned if I hafta stand in line for a long time waiting to cast my vote.

While I may be a lifelong registered Republican, I won't reveal who I chose to vote for and why until the polls close. I wasn't impressed by negative sh*t-slinging attack ads from either side.

And WTF is this over-done "I'm so-and-so, and I approved this message?" No sh*t, Sherlock, I can read the f*cking disclaimer on the TV!

ETA: Voted straight Republican ticket.

That little saying just gets on my last nerve!! Would they say "I'm so-and-so and I DON'T approve this message!"
I'm going to vote early just as soon as the bell rings in about 5 minutes!

The ballot is signed and sealed. Tomorrow, I'm going to go to the post office to add insurance and a certification request. This is Florida we're talking about--I'm NOT risking any isht with my vote.

I just registered this year. I don't get the vote early and vote often thing. Does Michigan do this? I've never heard of it here.

I waited almost 2 hours in line this morning to do early voting. It was worth it since I'm sure the lines will be worse on Nov. 2. I overheard one of the poll workers saying that they're expecting 80% turn out this year; I don't know how true that is.

I voted yesterday and there were only about 5 other people in there. Of course, it was pouring down rain so I think folks just looked out the door and said "Oh, forget it!!"

Thumbs up

I will early vote Saturday morning to avoid long lines later Saturday and on 11.2.04. I really believe nationwide that voter turnout will be at an all time high.
