Typically, I've had NO line in the past, literally walk up, check in with nobody in front of me, and I'm out the door in under 5 minutes. It took me about 20 minutes to get in and out today. . . . and that's in Massachusetts. :)

1. My wife and I had a simliar experience.... Normally in the small town
we see no lines at all. My wife had us go down to the voting place at 6:55am and she was 5th in line and I was 6th.

2. We went at 5:45
There was already a line. We voted at 6:30 and when we left the line was about 3 x longer than when we'd arrived. No one was wearing red. ;-)
