GA: Anecdotal- Turnout LOWER THEN EXPECTED in Republican precincts!!

[Joe the Revelator]

I work with a lot of republicans. Each of them said they had no trouble voting this morning, and were surprised at how short the lines were. They both live in very white, very conservative precincts on different sides of the state.

GOOD
NEWS

1. Of course, THEY had 1 machine for every 6 voters.

3. Of course the affluent whites aren't gonna have trouble voting

We'll see if they show up or not.

4. That is good but

I wish the # of machines could be increased and lines shortened in the Dem precincts.

What I really wish is that everyone could vote w/ pencil and paper, and no machines.

6. Uh...can you say "early voting?"

I've been waiting for this one. They've scared everyone with visions of ten-hour lines today, so people voted early. Now they'll say "Oh, voting today was lighter than expected. Obama couldn't draw the crowds!" They'll try. It won't work.
