I live in Lake County and I can tell you right now that |
|
those absentee ballots will be overwhelmingly for Obama. There has never been eleven thousand early ballots in this county before and it's because Obama people went to vote early. They had cookouts, they drove friends and neighbors to the courthouse all day last Saturday. Those uncounted votes will be for Obama.

5. One of those early votes they're counting is mine. |
|
It's weird; I don't think my vote has ever really counted before.

6. Cool, I hope Obama squeaks out a victory |

That will put a period on this night for sure, though it's over either way.

as late as this thing is going. I'm so tired. I feel like it's Florida 2000 all over again.

11. I hate the voter ID thing |
|
but if we have to deal with it, I'm glad it was the primary so that everyone will know to have the ID come Nov.
My mother moved to South Carolina when she was 80 and did not get a driver's license because she had stopped driving. It took my brother lots of effort to get her an ID so she could fly out to CA to see me. So I know that getting ID isn't easy.
