The gal in front of me was a first-time voter…had her ID and her voter’s registration card and looked a little nervous. When the volunteer checked the girl in, she announced to the whole gymnasium, “we have a new voter here!” and everyone…the volunteers and all the voters (including those actively voting) all cheered and clapped for her. Everything went smooth as usual.

Once all the touch feelie breast feeding stops over there hopefully that blog will die off and we can discuss some real issues and solutions here without those nuts intruding but hey, just like king arthur needed a court jester these village idiots do provide some entertainment.

After it’s all said and done Elena and Alanna are still fat and KG is flat out disgusting and mean. Barrack Obama in the white house is not going to change that unless he puts them on a mandatory exercise program and closes all the Krispy Kremes, 5 guys and Mcdonalds in a 200 mile radius but I doubt that’s going to happen.

Re: “Village People Alum”…Does that thought excite you?

Actually, I’m the wife of a naval officer (15 years of service). Sorry if this fact dispels any fantasies you may have harbored about a possible connection to the Village People.

You weren’t able to sufficiently answer my “hero” question. I would give you props (or whatever the current slang is these days) for a good effort, but it was merely chanting on your part. Obama may be many things, but a hero he is not.

I’ve heard those tee-shirts are worn by some Marines who are stationed in Japan.

No issues other than a few people confused over the “city-wide ballot” thing. We let a Wolf campaign officer know that some people may have missed their opportunity to vote for the Congressman.

Obama volunteer got all up in our faces when some volunteers started handing out actually-informative information to people, as opposed to just the sample ballots. Of course, she didn’t seem to think there was a problem with her always going into the polling place to “help” people get situated.

Met a delegation from Portugal who was in the U.S. observing the election. They were wonderful folks and were very fascinated with our whole process.

Heavy turnout but never much of a line. The poll workers did a fantastic job today and deserve our thanks.

The near term and term babies your candidate thinks are okay to kill will bleed Obama Red, shame on you.

We heard that Chick fil A was giving out free chicken sandwiches to anyone with an “I Voted” sticker so we went there. They gave me a chicken sandwich even though my sticker was altered.

I told him that that was a rather amusing but thoroughly politically incorrec t-shirt he was wearing and he said he wore it so he wouldn’t be asked who he voted for on the way out.

A voter had complained earlier that the machines (screens) were visible to people in line and we couldn’t vote for about 8-10 minutes while they spun the machines around, applied duct tape to the cables to keep them tied down as best they could and to put tape on the ground telling people where to go.

All in all it was a good experience. Voted 2 Repubs and 1 Dem tonight. The Precinct Captain seems to run Pattie very smoothly. Haven’t had an issue voting there ever.

spouse voted at 6am at Haydon elementary in the city where the machines were set up with two ballots — Citywide or Presidential –??

after selecting Citywide — you got to vote for president, senator and congressperson.

so — after selecting WOLF — screen verification came back the vote had been for FEDER??

WTH???

managed to get that corrected. good thing paying attention.

fast forward nearly four hours later and guess what??

same “glitch” happened for my vote.

neither of us thought anything of it.

until we compared experiences and discovered the identical issue had occurred??

is something up??

just in case, we’ve alerted the Wolf campaign….
