I voted in Johnson Co. Kansas, Kerry will WIN!

[dubyaD40web]

So I pull into the JoCo election office and the place is packed. Many voters were voting often and early I guess. I only noticed one B/C sticker compared to a whole lot of K/E stickers. I asked the poll worker how many people have voted so far and she said just over 50,000. I asked her if that was a record in early voting and she said, "BY FAR."

Now, if this is in Johnson County Kansas, it has to be in other areas too. Which leads me to believe, Kerry in a LANDSLIDE!!!

3. Diebold touchscreen county, right?

Keep an eye on things.

4. Actually, Yes and No

Early voting is on a paper ballot (Fill in the dot type). On election day, they do use Diebold.

But, if people are voting early, that cuts down the electronic voting on Nov 2nd. Plus, they already submitted their vote, so they can't change it if * finds OBL.

5. Kerry will win Kansas? Or do you mean the US?

6. My democrat heart say KS but probably not

It will be close though.

Also, he will win the presidency too.

10. Glad to hear you voted for Kerry. However..

if Johnson County Kansas goes blue you will here my jaw drop to the floor over here across the stateline in Jackson County Missouri. If there has ever been an area which screams yuppie, white affluent united Republicans its Johnson County.

12. Makes sense that NATIONWIDE in early voting there will be more dems

as we are MOTIVATED as hell this year.

Turnout on Election day will be KEY.

We all need to do as MUCH as we can to get out the Dem vote.

11. That is wonderful to hear

I will try very hard not to gloat too much when it happens - my Bush supporting daughter lives in Johnson County! :evilgrin:

[MacDo]

13. I have yet..

..to see a Kerry sign or sticker anywhere here in Wichita. I'm afraid Kansas will as usual fall to the enemy.

14. What's Johnson County Kansas like?

Is it as red as the rest of the state?

[catmandu57]

18. About as red as it gets

It's suburbia, lot's of money. It's kind of strange too, many highly educated people who should know better.


edit: @#&^%$$&^ keyboard. Many is not spelled mant.

15. in KS, Kerry will probably only win

Johnson County and Douglas (Lawrence) County...(I'm a KU grad)

[Zero Gravitas]

16. Wyandotte

don't forget Wyandotte County (or Poland!) KCK usualy goes Dem.

[dubyaD40web]

17. I can almost guarantee

Wichita, Topeka, etc...will go blue this year.
