proof of big turnout here in so california...
tho I already voted absentee, swung by the local polling place and there was a line of +/- 50 people at 11 AM! usually that place is a ghost town all day outside of before and after work voters.

People in CA were actually waiting in line for gosh sakes.

4. 1st time i've ever waited
to vote in San Diego. It was the greatest feeling. People MUST turn out to vote.

If you don't vote, you cannot bitch.

5. I just caution everyone that large voter turnout
goes for the Repugs too. I don't think we should do the victory dance too soon, especially in CA. I'd hate to see a surprise there. That would be THE biggest disappointment of the night.
