Pretty lively at the polls this morning

As busy as I've ever seen it at opening on a primary day. Interestingly, I only saw Democrats voting--the Democratic polling booths were full up and no one was using the Rupublican booths. Even though this is a heavily Democratic district, you'd think that the Specter/Toomey race would pull out a few Republicans. Maybe Republicans sleep in.

Small district but alot of democrats voting.I went in at 703 am and there was a line of people waiting to vote.Specter/Toomey is a tough one to call. One good thing .. which ever one wins they are going to come out this damaged.

3. Democrats vote early

that's common knowledge.

4. Really?

You mean I vote at 7:00 am because I'm a Democrat and not because I have to go to work?

5. That and Democrats work

actually, I forgot why Democrats vote early, but they do.

6. They go to vote and then go to work.

It's just the way we think.

7. voter turnout in my little town

they were also updating their voter registration records.. seems alot of people either registered to vote or switched party affiliation

due to time constraints they hadn't had time to double check the records so they were checking them against voter registration cards as people came in...

my little town has a total adult population of around 300 (we have more cows than people)

when my partner and I went to vote last night around 6-pm-ish (polls close at 8pm) our voter cards were doubled checked, we signed a voter book and a number was assigned

I asked what the number meant -- I was told that this was a count of how many people came in to vote -- my number was 208. this means that as of 6pm we had approximately 69% voter turnout, probably higher as not everyone in town is registered to vote
