Asked election worker how it was going. He said turnout was HUGE: he estimated 70% of precinct had already voted, with another rush to come after 3pm. . btw, Pranai: the voter roster had a printed "A" (I assume for "Absentee Ballot") next to your name.... So, your vote is already registered! Bravo! VOTED at around 1:30pm: NO wait in line at ALL!!!

Took me 90 minutes of standing and waiting in lines to vote for 3 positions. I got to the voting location at 0530 and probably was the 150th person in line. By the time the place opened at 0600 there were another 200 people behind me. Great showing; I just wish people would do this for every election. Maybe, Americans are getting it that voting is a privilege and should never be taken for granted. I will remain hopeful, at least for today, that there is a new trend brewing in America.
