54. 2 hours in VA, thankfully line was indoors
My parents went at 6am, i went to vote at 730...OMG the line was massive:wow: Thankfully the line was inside the middle school, so we stayed dry. one optical reader was down, BUT the Election Protection members were on hand and warned us to see if the tally reader was moving after we cast our votes or not.

There were so man new young voters, I only saw like 2 people leave, everyone else stayed in line. We even had a Redskin fan get into it with a Steelers fan (all in good nature, everyone had a good laugh).

This afternoon I did some canvassing--another 2 hours walking, but it did stop raining--, most were at work, the Obama supporters who were at home had voted :bounce: I'm worn out, otherwise I'd go help with the polling place until 7pm.
