Lines to vote in Northern VA today. [View All]

[WoodrowFan]

Went to Election Officer training in Fairfax County today (Northern VA). There were 50-some people in line at 9:45 to vote "absentee-in-person" when I went in, and a like number in line when I came out of training at noon. The line seemed to be moving at a slow but steady pace. The county uses scantron sheets and there are only 4 races on the ballot (Prez, Senator, House of Representatives, and a bond issue for county parks) so they can process a lot of voters very quickly.

It's not all Democrats voting. I saw a woman with a pink "Team Sarah" shirt leaving :puke: but our county is very heavily Democratic so it'd be reasonable to guess that most of the voters there were for Obama.
