Early Voting
In my state today is the last day for early voting. We left this morning for one of the few polls that they opened and wated over an hour and a half to vote. I felt very proud standing in line for that long with all the other people who were there to have their say too. I heard lots of people stating their opinions and communicating with strangers about their ideas. No one was rude or bickering. People helped one another by holding places etc so peeps could pee. It was a really positive experience.
Have any of you Americans already voted?

Yep, sure did. I believe it was Wednesday I went and cast my ballot.

Glad to hear you voted early. ![Smilie](images/smilies/smile.gif) To avoid the lines I'm planning to vote late, maybe Thursday before the weekend rush starts again.

I will cast my vote on Nov 4. Our early voting ended yesterday and they said that the lines where 2+ hours long. I should get in and out in about 20 minutes.

No early voting in Maryland; there's a question on this year's ballot to amend the state constitution to allow it.
*However*: voting by absentee ballot is allowed, there's no a whole lot of close questioning about why yone might request an absentee ballot, and those of us working the election are highly encouraged to use the absentee ballot (unlike provisional ballots, all absentee ballots are counted). The deadline for requesting an absentee ballot has already passed, though.
Yes, therefore, I have voted already. And yes, I voted for the early voting amendment: that's going to do something at least to take the heavy election-day corwds down, and anything that does that while still allowing people to vote gets my vote.

I always vote by mail in vote ... in California (as of a couple of years ago) you can request to be permanently on the mail-in list and so I automatically get a ballot a few weeks before every election ... I love that! ... so yes I've voted already! Now I just wish they would stop running all those pesky election ads! ![Smilie](images/smilies/smile.gif)

Glad to hear the experience was so positive, Lil. Given how nasty this election has been at times it's really refreshing to hear.
I'll be voting tomorrow.

My wife & I just voted(in NH).In & out in 5/10 mins.Altho we spend 4/5 mos.
per year in our home in Fla.,our home state is NH.I was slightly surprised that
they didn't even ck our IDs.We just gave them our names & they ckd it off on the voting list.We have been registered for yrs,but we could have been anybody.This is your only chance to keep the(in my opinion) biggest con artist
that I've ever seen from getting elected! Irish ![irish](images/smilies/feiertag-smiley-014.gif)

Maryland has passed the early voting amendment by more then a two-to-one margin, excepting only one county, whose results aren't in yet (still).
