Just answer the poll. Don't post who you voted for, that's for you and your savior.

Yup, just got back. My voting machine worked fine, but the illustration on the card reader and the "this end in" arrow on the card contradicted each other. I'm sure it'll baffle plenty of people today.

Dammit! Why can't they put the election off for 2 more months? In 2 month's I'll be 18 and able to vote.

Oh well, my one little vote won't make that much difference anyway . .

My polling place opened at 6am. I was in line by 6:45 and in the booth at 6:46.

Wore my sticker to work, and can't wait to get home and watch the election coverage all night!

Voted this morning. Tonight should be crazy here in Chicago. They're anticipated approximately a million people in Grant Park. I have class until 8:30 tonight a few blocks from the Park, going back home is going to be a hassle, even though I don't live that far away.

I didn't get a sticker

In other news Im more interested in playing the new Bond game than watching coverage - I have a funny feeling that the POTUS will not be decided tonight...

I just got back from voting, the only ones i knew on the ballot where obamz, mcainz, and barrz.

The line was ridiculously long, I waited at least 12 seconds before I could go up to my voting booth.

Honestly I saw all over the news about all these lines which stretched longer than fat stomachs. I was apprehensive then I arrived at my old middle skool (voting station) and too my surprise I found the walk to the classroom to be longer than the waiting time.

Oh yeah I noticed at the top that you could only use pen or #2 pencil to do the markings..they gave us these black permanent markers...

uhh..
