So I am deep in the heart of the Soviet Socialist Republic of Maryland, Baltimore City oblast. As I am standing in line, the election judge tallying voting receipts starts laughing and says "First Republican on that machine all day." The other at the table laughs and says "Oh, just throw it away... they shouldn't get a vote anyway."
She was clearly joking or I would have made a big stink. As it was, I simply announced "Yes we do.". She apologized profusely and assured me they would never do such a thing. God bless America.

Re: Official 2012 Election Day Thread
I am sure it goes on to some degree by both sides. I strongly support harsh penalties for people caught doing it.

Re: Official 2012 Election Day Thread
Nothing tinfoil about what I posted. The proof is in the Congressional records. Feel free to prove otherwise.

Re: Official 2012 Election Day Thread
Took me 2 hours of standing in line, but I managed to get through. I'm surprised at how few voting machines they had at my local school, there was probably a good 300ish people in line the entire time I was there and they only had 6 machines.

Re: Official 2012 Election Day Thread
NC is a complete tossup right now. Keeps going back and forth.

I don't expect him to win NC at all. He was the last Dem candidate that won NC since Jimmy Carter.

Re: Official 2012 Election Day Thread
If Obama wins FL and OH, Romney might as well go ahead and call it a night and make the call.
Wonder if Saden/Sammy are somewhere drinking heavily...lol
