Re: America Votes 2008
IMO, Obama has the margin he needs to overcome the Bradley Effect and assure his victory. I give McCain a 1 in 5 chance of winning.
If Obama wins, we'll know by midnight tomorrow at the latest as the electoral map and states in contention line up for a quick Obama victory. If McCain is goling to win, its going to be a long night as we'll have to wait for Ohio and those midwestern states to shake out and the lawyers to shut up. |

BREAKING: A small group of teenagers in Baltimore are opting not to vote! Are the media and news pundits to blame?

Re: America Votes 2008
BTW, regardless of political opinion, I'd like to ask that all Americans on this board make it a point to get out and vote tomorrow... even Jason1.:D
There is nothing more American than participating in democracy. |

Re: America Votes 2008
Voted.
Went before 6am. There was a decent sized line outside. Let us in a little after 6. Inside was quite crowded. So many little old ladies running about the place. We had old voting booths from the 50s. My dad went in before me and it wasn't working. Had to have someone come over to fix it. At least I know my vote went through. EDIT: Wow, I lucked out. The news is showing lines at some places going around the block. |
Re: America Votes 2008
If Obama wins today will be a historic day for America, and if Mccain wins... well... It'd prove a serious point about polls and will probably lower all the 'drama' on the news leading up to elections.

Re: America Votes 2008
I went to the poll at about 7:30 this morning. The polls opened at 7:00 a.m. I got in and about in about 20 minutes. Everything moved smoothly.
The voting apparatuses looked like new-fangled ones. It was all digital, and it had a large LCD screen with multiple buttons and a button wheel at the bottom. It looked like a touchscreen but wasn't, in fact they even had to write in multiple places to warn people of that fact. You had to enter a four-digit code for the machine to start the voting process, which was given to you by someone running another apparatus just for that purpose, who only gave you the code after you gave him the ticket that you received from the other people at a table that checked your name to the list of voters. |

Absentee ballot is so the way to go. It is a little less fun though.

Re: America Votes 2008
Fuck electronic voting. I did it the old fashioned way, with paper.
Anyway, I left school at 5:00am to get home to vote. I voted around 7:30. Obama for the win. Now I can sit back and relax. There's a lot of inbound traffic in Chicago for the Obama rally, it's cool as hell...I may walk over there later. |
