Yay, we voted!

But good Lord. At 8:10 yesterday morning, (and the early voting polls opened at 8), the line was 1.25 hours long. At 3:30 today, last day of early voting, it was 3 hours when we got in it. When we left, the line extended even farther down the sidewalk than it had. I kept Dragon company in line to vote today, since he was working in Nashville

Youch! My condolences! Does your state not require your company to give you two hours off to vote? And early voting has become more and more common throughout the parts of TN I've lived in, and rumor in the line had it that the early voting turnout so far in Memphis already exceeded total voting in '04's election in Memphis.

Youch, MO doesn't do early voting? (And I had no idea you were that close, either!) I hope like hell we don't have riots anywhere. {{hugs}} and go you on getting up at 5 to go vote!

Not only are we in the next state over, but I grew up down in the Missouri Boot Heel -- you know, that little section down in the SE corner of the state that Arkansas didn't want? ::G::
