I stood in line for two hours -- no one left. I think it probably would have taken a flood, or a bomb.
We don't push buttons in this state -- we fill in bubbles on a sheet of paper with a "special" pen (looks like a black marker to me) and then feed it into a scanner. So mostly I was thinking, "don't fill in the wrong bubble... don't fill in the wrong bubble!" First year with a new system, after all. But only about 5,000 people in my city voted for McCain, and I'm pretty sure I wasn't one of them.
But yeah, a line of people out the door and down the block at 7:15? I've never waited more than five minutes to vote. It was fucking inspirational.
