Please post what time you arrived and left, your ballot # if you know it, and your polling location.
Me: Arrived at 6:40, left at 7:30; Ballot #44 (36th vote registered in machine); West Bloomfield Precinct #11.
I savored voting for Obama. What an awesome feeling!

2. Auburn Hills, Mi precinct # 1 |

ballot number 69. I arrived at 7:35 and returned home at 7:55. they had lots of extra places set up to accomodate people. Normally our precinct only has 4, today at least 20 stations set up. There were no poll watchers or people challenging.

I was the 247th vote at 9:30. I was in and out in about 30 minutes. The poll workers said it was about a hour and a half wait earlier in the day. I think I picked a good time to go. I'm sure it will be very busy again at lunch and after people get off work.

9. West side of Detroit..took about one hour paper ballots |
|
the scan type. When I got to the booth I wondered where the machine was, then I saw it... a pen attached to a string. I loved it. I voted for each Democrat seperately and for MJ and for Stem Cell and for the Tax...

10. Springfield Twp precinct #3 (N. Oakland Co.) |
|
Took about 20 minutes total. It's a pretty rural, predominantly Republican district. Busiest I've ever seen it, but still nothing like the urban centers.
GOBAMA!
:woohoo: :woohoo:

River Rouge, Precinct #1. Not sure of ballot number, but I was #426 registered in the tally. Voted at 3:30pm, left at 3:50pm.
I looked at my "Obama/Biden" selection for a long time (happily) before giving it up to the scanner! :woohoo:
