Big lines at the polls here
Well, and our precinct, at least. I'm not sure what that means - there's no way that Kamala Harris will win deep red Manatee County, Florida. But Republican voters seem eager to turn out and vote.
There were lines at the library for early voting 2 weeks ago and every day that I went to the library over the last 2 weeks. There were a number of people looking for the (now closed) early voting yesterday (Monday the 4th)... This is in Pinellas county..
Had about a ten minute wait. The ladies behind the table were chatty and fun. I asked if my wife had voted. They seemed puzzled. I said If she's voted, she's switched sides,because she died in February.
I am in Bandera County, TX. Though the county is small with a population of about 21,000 in 2020, I heard we had the 11th largest early voter turn out in Texas. My wife and I voted on Monday October 20th, the first day of early voting. We were early and the line got substantially longer while we voted.
I purposely went at lunch to avoid delays. There were more poll workers than voters when I was there.
The county courthouse is almost across the street from my office so it was easy. I love that it has no security or access controls - walk in or out any door, open carry doesn't turn get any reaction.
Long lines here but we thought that was mostly do to the f*sticks consolidating 4 polling stations into just one venue and then giving it less than a third of the equipment ours had last time. Still, 2 hours in line and nobody walked away without voting.
Well, IF she " Wins " the fraud will be obvious.
ReplyDeleteIf she 'wins' the fraud will be so damn obvious that it will make the obvious fraud of 2020 and 2022 look like a school election.

There was massive early voter turnout in my part of Texas. Lines around the polling places.
ReplyDeleteI have heard long lines mean dissatisfaction with the status quo and people are voting for a change of course.
ReplyDeleteLong lines out here too!

ReplyDeleteSeems They were trying to Stack the Deck and maintain Plausible deniability. Ha! Didn't work!
DeleteOsceola County remains in the clutches of the Ds. Crap. I should have known.
