I just got back from my polling place. There were only a couple of others voting, but the poll worker said it's been slow but steady.
Got home just before the deluge started. It's raining like crazy now.
Now, for the waiting.

I was #131, and I voted for Dayton. Hopefully he'll win today's primary.

I voted in a tiny former church like that years ago when living in So Minnesota. Those were the days...people weren't required to register before voting in rural areas.

7. I was #200 at my polling place shortly after noon. |
|
Twice as high at that time as the last couple of primaries I've voted in. Lots of seniors in my St Paul precinct - right off of Lexington and Edgecumbe in the MacGroveland area.
