Stupid question maybe but, are these long lines all for our guy?

[Raven]

And, if they continue and build during the day, will everyone get a chance to vote?

[BridgeTheGap]

1. In our state, as long as there are people in line, the polls stay open.

And, no, they're not all voting for Obama. But a majority will.

[demo dutch]

9. Hopefully split, someone said that Repugs are more likely to vote today

[rcmusic]

2. ONLY IF

all of us are on line.

Go get 'em. OBAMA 08!

[Doityourself]

3. Not according to freepers,...they think the long lines are for McCain/Palin... n/t

[LisaL]

4. Nobody is predicting Obama to get a 100 % of the vote.

:rofl:

[Raven]

6. It was a stupid question! What I meant was: is the additional turnout

producing the lines a good sign for us?

[BridgeTheGap]

12. I think it's good. Republicans typically turn in out in higher numbers

so I expect to see them. It's the youth and African American vote that this hinges on, and they were there in line in numbers I haven't seen at my polling place before.

5. The polls will have to stay open as long as people are in line

but of course they are not ALL for our guy, let's hope most are though.

7. The GOP deals in voter suppression (repression?)

Large turnouts/long lines with people staying with it until they cast their vote is a Repug nightmare.

[skooooo]

10. yep...more is better!

[stuntcat]

8. everyone around us in line was voting for Obama :D

that's what we figured out when everybody got to chatting! But there were so many people there, I assume the ones who looked sad or mad were voting for McCain :shrug:

[lunatica]

11. If you were a Republican who didn't much like McCain and hated Palin

Would you get up at the crack of dawn to go vote?

[totodeinhere]

13. If you are a fanatical wingnut, maybe yes. n/t

[lunatica]

15. Thankfully wingnuts are a minority, albeit a loud one n/t

[TheWraith]

14. Typically high turnout is considered to favor Democrats.

Particularly this year when unlikely voters are overwhelmingly for us.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

16. It's not McCainamania.

Of that I'm certain.
