From my corner of Virginia in Fairfax County...
Edited on Tue Nov-07-06 06:43 PM by SaveElmer
I worked the polls at the Centre Ridge precinct today. At 5:00 1003 votes had been cast...

I just looked it up and in 2002 there were 933 total for this precinct. Just got off the phone with my wife and she is 30th in line at 6:45...

Don't know what this means exactly...clearly turnout is higher...don't know if that is voter interest or demographic change.

1. I Worked the Polls 6-9 am
Couldn't believe how many people were there. My husband always votes in that timeframe and said it was unusually busy. I was working to get the marriage amendment voted down. Amazing how many folks were voting NO.

2. In my precinct
in Chesterfiled County which is a republic (I'll add the "an" when they add the "ic" on Democrat)suburb of Richmond I asked the election official whom I hapen to know how turn out was and she said it was very, very busy up until 2:00 when I voted. When I drove by at 5:30 the parking lot was packed.
We finally got rid the punch cards this years and had optical scan.
