Live from inside a polling place in Strawberry Mansion, Philly, and starting to go stir crazy. In 5 hours, over 1/3 of people registered at my location already voted! I need some air.

Sorry I didn't do my usual pre-election post, but y'all are high-information voters anyway. Thanks all for your informative posts and comments in my stead. Remember 866-OUR-VOTE for problems, and STAY IN LINE and VOTE!!

And feel free to comment or text me with news updates, since I'm a bit sequestered here...

I voted a little after 8 (got there at 7:20) and the only issue was that someone checked off who they were voting for but didn't press the "Vote" button. So they had to decide what to do. My voting station is usually horrible with people jumping fown your throat outside telling you who to vote for. I'm taking my Grandparetns at lunch since 4 years ago, the workers would just vote for the elderly as they saw fit.
