(5,941 posts)We vote when the polls open every presidential election. There are usually 15-20 people in front of us. There were more than 100 this morning. By the time we voted the line stretched into a nearby park. Our precinct is heavily Democratic. Last presidential election it was 83% dem. Turnout was substantially heavier than four years ago.

(34,060 posts)He will be leaving here pretty soon to drive in. I think he told me that you could also vote at Arrowhead Stadium? I think he wanted to do that but was going to try his voting place first. Lol, it is wonderful that there are so many options. Unless I heard wrong that is! Enjoy your voting. We did earlier.

(34,060 posts)that they changed his voting place last week so it is a larger building on The Paseo. They are expecting a lot more votes than usual.
