4. Done about two hours ago.

Traffic was brisk at my EV location (Fiesta Mart, in the shadow of Reliant Stadium on Kirby Drive in H-Town). I'll be manning a table for the Progressive Populists at the Obama event this evening, so come by and say hi.

6. There was a line at my early voting location

I had to wait about 10 minutes. In the middle of the afternoon.

The line was for the Democratic primary line. If you wanted to vote R you could just breeze in practically. The only Rs I saw were two kids voting for Ron Paul. I know because they asked if anyone in line with them was voting for Ron Paul and we all said no. Then the young man said well at least we can all agree that we don't like McCain. You got that right!

7. If you have to EV on a touchscreen, DON'T EV

I cannot stress this enough. Make your vote count.

8. Some places don't have a choice derby

In Travis you have to use a touchscreen early voting or regular voting. We don't get a paper option bypass. The only paper ballot you're going to get in Travis or Harris is an absentee ballot.

Believe me, most of us are not happy with this.
:grr:

10. I'm not religious, but....

I am PRAYING for some huge coattails!!!

With the numbers the Dem primaries are raking in compared to thugs, I am hoping that will be the case in Texas too!
