NOTE:

For those looking to cast their votes early, the hours are different from four years ago, the BOE is open only on weekdays this time around and for the first three weeks only from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m

I heard on the radio that around 500 people had voted - don't know where this estimate came from - this is just one location, the downtown Cleveland BOE.

I know that there are church groups planning to bring busloads of people this week instead of the last Sunday. I think that's tomorrow, but not sure.

I'm getting off of work early Friday to vote before they close at 5:00.
