BTW, don't count on knowing who the next prez is today - or even this week. Remember how Florida held that up with the hanging chad problem on their ballot when it was a close race and the Supreme's finally sided with Bush (helps when your bro is governor in a deciding state).
Well, this is another that looks to be real close here in Florida and Ohio and we have a lot of issues due to the Repugnicants and T-party causing obstacles for the Democrat base of working class and poor ppl. So, expect a court case to come of it if it's too close. If the Repugnicants can't lie their way into office they have proven to employ dirty tricks like cutting early voting times and putting up ID obstacles that disenfranchises poor and elderly.
I understand our long lines at early voting and near riots at the election office have been making the national news. There are lawsuits pending on those issues. Also, Ohio has a quarter million provisional ballots out that may not be resolved until Nov 17th.
So, I am not even going to watch the results that will likely be running on every channel this evening. Our polls might not even close at 7 p.m. like with early voting. Anyone in line at 7 gets to vote, even if it runs into tomorrow. So, gonna put in a rom-com DVD and relax. We may know tomorrow who is POTUS, or not.

we have a local election here that has been heating up to the point where the Democratic candidate falsified her credentials, claiming to be a CPA to give her credence for her BOE position (handling the money). Now she is running for town committeewoman, and after being exposed, she did not show up for the debate on Friday. I was ticked... was going to change my schedule at work to go.. but sandy ruined that. I'm glad i didnt jump thru hoops to see a "no show"!!!
Soo... you BET i voted!

On my way to work this morning. It helped give a sense of normalcy back to this mess. I was able to check that they had my daughter's name in the book. They did and she voted in her first election this morning. *sniff* they grow up so fast!

I'm a little embarrassed by my first election. Had to be 21 back then and the first prez election was in '68.
I voted for Richard Nixon.
What did I know? Who was this Hubert Humphrey anyhow? The only name recognition was the existing VP and I had no idea he was a crook. Oh, well - keeps me humble.

As Shale mentioned, it could be days (hopefully not weeks and NOT decided by the Supreme Court again) until a winner is declared. I read a prediction somewhere that the Ohio (?) results might not be known until Thanksgiving? I don't expect to have even an inkling until I can hear the radio or get on-line tomorrow. Perhaps that's a blessing in disguise that we don't have TV so I'm not confronted by all the election coverage.

I'm hoping there will be a decision tonight but concerned about these voting machine incidents that are not allowing people to vote for Obama. When they do it selects Romney. Hopefully it's isolated & the problem machines have been removed. But I fear a repeat of the dreaded hanging chads.

Several ppl on in Miami-Dade County have been showing their little sticker on facebook that says, "I Voted Today."
I didn't get one of those when I sent in my Absentee Ballot last week, voting for Obama but I have been getting them for several years.
Been sticking them on a card-holding cup on my dresser and there are ten of them until I ran out of room.
