It's snowing in Boston
I was going to vote (for Coakley) before work, but I had to shovel my walk, so I'm going to vote after work instead. No idea what the snow will do, but it strikes me that anything that drives down turnout is bad for us.

*shrug*

I've phone banked, and I'm going to vote. I guess there's nothing left to do but hope.

11. There were no lines when we went in, but when we came out, all of 3-4 minutes inside,
we saw more people coming.


My 79 year old Democratic mother said that thee was a very large showing at about 12:00 today.


:)

6. Does it always snow during regular elections?
Let's pray that it snows in all the Brown voters.

3. True dat
I was using myself as an example: since snow still screws up my commute, I had to shift my voting time. Luckily the polls stay open until 8.

10. Not much of a storm by New England standards.
I live below Torrington. Looks like we are going to get hit today too.
