1. Maryland Governor endorsed Hillary |
|
Can't really complain considering the weather, I guess. We'll see if it helps.

I guess after living in Montana for 15 years, I take ice more in stride. Either way, I suppose.

10. Did it ever occur to your biased self that maybe this is for the Repubics? |
|
MD, DC, and VA were strongly polling for your guy. Staying open late does little to help him ...... or Clinton, for that matter.

5. Black Ice here on the Eastern Shore. |
|
I don't mind driving in snow but this kind of ice is terrible. We went to vote around 4:00 pm and it was even dangerous just trying to walk on the sidewalk.

6. Good call, The Washington D.C. suburbs just started freezing up during afternoon rush. |
|
Accidents everywhere. People that live in a non metro region have no idea of the chaos that results when ice hits during rush hour. So please, no smug statements of how well your state handles snow and ice. Rush hour is crappy here when the sun is shining let alone freezing rain.

8. No picnic in rural areas either. |
|
Where I live, they send all the salt trucks out to the Bay Bridge. We'll be lucky if our roads see a salt truck before morning.

9. Sparkly was in DC today. Normally it is a one hour ride. Three hours so far ...... |
|
...... and she's still on the road.
And we were raised in Connecticut and have no fear of snow. This is black ice and it wills top ANY one anywhere.

11. Luckily my polling place is 2 blocks from my house... |
|
And in suburban DC, it isn't all that bad. But I understand it's ugly in other areas. Hope everyone stayed safe!
