For those that have voted yet, how is the turnout?

[KentuckyDawg13]

Metro Louisville KY, Highlands Middle School location; took 5 minutes.
10 mins if you count my dead aunt's ballot.
Turnout was strong, many people there...most I have seen before.

I live right off of Yandell and Fairview MB Church is still a polling location. If you happened to just look south on N Old Canton from the Yandell intersection you would have seen cars parked at the old Deerfield Mini Mart and people parked on the side of the road all the way down to the chu

I live right off of Yandell and Fairview MB Church is still a polling location. If you happened to just look south on N Old Canton from the Yandell intersection you would have seen cars parked at the old Deerfield Mini Mart and people parked on the side of the road all the way down to the church.

My humble apologies to you and the other gentleman as Fairview MB Church still is a polling place. Apparently, they have split this precent up and those of us east of Old Canton vote at Deerfield and those west of Old Canton vote at Fairview. Once again, my humble apologies for this misunderstanding on my part.

For years we've voted at a church about 1 mile from our house. In Nov 2020 my wife and I went down there together after work to vote, stood in line for ~20 minutes, got to the table, and the lady informed us that our voting precinct for federal elections only had been moved to a different part of town. So we got back in the car, drove down to the new place, stood in line for almost 30 minutes, and voted about 10 minutes after the polls were supposed to have closed - they let us vote because we were already in line and we explained about the precinct switch. Since then we've voted in other state/local elections back at the first church.

So this morning the wife says she's going to vote first before work. I reminded her about going to the alternate precinct because federal election. She got there and the lot was full, cars parking up and down the street, she said she had to walk ~100 yards from where she parked and then stood in line for about 30 min. Got to the front, and the poll-worker informed her that they changed our precinct...back to the original church right by the house where we've always voted. Wife walked back to the car, drove back to that church, stood in line for another ~30 min and finally voted.

That happen to us before where they moved several precincts to one voting location. It was a disaster

I decided to work early and leave early. I just went pulled right up no line and was done in less than 2-3 minutes. Longest part was them finding my name and signing the book

I didn't realize Mississippi was this much of an outlier in terms of making it easier to vote:

My dad waited over an hour this morning before work, my mom said it took about 55 minutes from the time she left work til she finished and was back in the car. I waited until the after lunch nap time for the senior citizens and was the only person for the 6-7 letters for my line.

 

[BrunswickDawg]

I heard 75MM people early voted.
Thats nearly half of who voted in 2020.

My election place is directly across my side street at a church and based on the chaos that was happening at 7am this morning and has continued thru the morning, apparently nobody in my precinct voted early.
It's mass chaos of cars and overflow parking.

Even still, it took 10min to vote.
I can't imagine standing in the lines ive seen past years from GA and elsewhere.

Georgia is easy if you aren't in Metro Atlanta. I was #21 at my precinct at 7:30 this morning. Walked right in, handed over my ID, and was in and out in less than 5 minutes.

If I still lived in Metro Atl - I'd never wait until election day to vote. The lines are insane.

 

[M R DAWGS]

I Voted in Madison at 9:30. A poll worker that I know there said that 40% of that precinct had already voted at that time. There was a long line at 7:00, but it wasn’t bad at 9:30.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

Voted at 1:45 at the Hernando East precinct. There were 5 people in there voting. There were people sitting at the voting roll desk and I walked right up.

I swear I think it said only 110 people had voted.

I live on Yandell Rd. We used to vote at the tiny church on N. Old Canton Rd. but it has been changed (this year) to the clubhouse at Deerfield Golf Course. My wife and I went to vote around 9 AM and we're in/out in about 15 minutes. I know of no other voting places out here on N. Old Canton Rd. A casual Google search of voting places in Madison Co. show NO OTHER voting places on N. Old Canton Rd. near Yandell Rd. There is a voting place on N. Old Canton Rd. in Madison (The City) but if you live on Yandell, as you claimed, you would NOT be voting in Madison (The City). I'm going to come right out and say you are lying and full of ****. Prove me wrong. Just for fun, explain why you would even post such an easily disproved pile of crap like what you posted? What do you stand to gain by being such a lying piece of guano?

Damn!

 

[Dawg1976]

I voted at 10:30 a.m. and it wasn't bad. I had 2 people ahead of me getting checked in. I figure the early crowd was large tho. I heard a worker there say it had been a heavy turnout.

 

[coach66]

Took me over 2 hours to vote. I am on the other side of the interstate on Yandall Rd. We vote at a tiny church on North Old Canton Rd. There is only parking for probably 40 cars. Some people were having to park almost 1 mile away and walk.

That my location as well, it’s dangerous! Turned 65 so I voted early.

Longest part was them finding my name and signing the book

Yep, this is the same at my precinct every time. These people have been working at this fire station for decades and its like they have to re-learn the alphabet every election. You tell them your name, you spell it for them, you tell them no I said "B" not "D". They then turn the book to the "E's" and you have to yell loudly NO, I said "B" Then they look at you like their annoyed that you are getting loud. It takes way longer to sign in than to vote.

 

[Coast_Dawg]

In person vote down in my area was much smaller than 4 years ago. Could be from early voting or something else…Nostradamus and shlt

Interesting mix of reds.

We moved to our new house earlier this year so today was my first time voting at a new precinct. I live in the Crestwood area of Birmingham. Took me about 30 min at 10AM this morning. My wife took 40 minand she went at 7AM.

Just hand them your drivers license.

Yeah I just hand them my driver license and they scan it, flip the screen around and I sign my name. Pretty nice.

Same in Starkville at 2. Starting to get a little pissed I can't participate in any election outrage. Not a single text, phone call or email and zero wait to vote.**
Pro tip if you can swing it, vote and go to the UPS store around 2 for an in and out experience.

 

[Yeti]

I was the only one in my polling place in Collierville..yep the only one at 3 pm. Met two ladies coming in on way out. Workers told me extremely slow

 

[Trojanbulldog19]

Thing I didn't like about the machines they use in my precinct. It's like analog electronic. Use push the button by your choice and then hit submit but there is no print out you were shown to hit cast like my old voting precinct

Madison County, Alabama: I voted this morning around 9, after the morning rush but before the lunch rush. I'd guess there were about 100 people in my polling place. It took me about 30 minutes from car back to car.

Had to get ID and eligibility verified in Line 1 and got a "ticket"; Line 2, took the ticket and got a ballot, and was able to mark it; Line 3, the longest, was to insert the ballot in one of two scanners.

I didn't notice how many had voted on the scanner I used. There are about 5,000 voters in my polling place. The county has some 333,000 eligible voters.

 

[RocketDawg]

The wife and I voted last Thursday in Leander at the library. There was a line, but they let me go to the front because I had a cane and was parked in a handicapped spot. They are very nice and very patient.

This is one of the biggest turnouts since I started voting in 1980.

In Alabama, you can go to the front of the line if you're either handicapped or over 70. I didn't see anyone taking advantage of either.

 

[The Peeper]

Just hand them your drivers license.

Then they've got to go through their arsenal of glasses till they find the ones they can read with

 

[Mr. Cook]

You must be a Democrat. If so, you'll also be able to vote well after you're dead and gone. ***

Lies!!!

Who says I’m not already dead and gone?

 

[peewee.sixpack]

I vote in a little old Church in Hinds County near Clinton. I showed up at 6:58 and voted at 7:34. There was quite a crowd. What was interesting is a guy in front of my wife and I was told he already voted

 

[OopsICroomedmypants]

The young lady behind me in line literally had blue hair and a nose ring

I remember when the blue hairs were old ladies
