Share your location, too, if you wish. It took me 2 hours in Richmond, VA.
See other thread with poll. I apologize for the double posting.

I don't understand what takes so long in some places. I vote in a rural area, so there has never been a wait, but the process takes less than 5 minutes to check in and vote.

...are those who've helped us.
Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
when you vote, do you have the choice between Obama and McCain ? Between the 2 political parties (democrats Vs republicans) ? Or do you vote for the "big voters" (I don't knwo hwo yo ucall them... I mean the senators etc. who will vote in December... ?

When you go to vote , you are not only voting for the president , but other official positions as well. you can pick and choose whom you wish to vote for by selecting their name on a touch screen . Only the presidential candidates have running mates , however. If you are voting for Mccain you are also voting for Sarah Palin for VP. If you are voting for Obama, you are voting for Joe Biden for VP. does that help at all?/

By the time i was done though the line was about 50% shorter then when i got in it. Next time i'll go around 10am in hopes of a shorter wait.

yikes!
that is crazy-long!
i have never waited more than say 20-30 minutes, and that is rare. we'll see how *different* this election is tonight, not voting until about 7:30 PM.
Let's just breathe...

I have to say, it felt weird doing the electronic ballot for the first time. It was easy as hell, but it makes me nervous. I like punching the little holes. It feels more "real", lol.
