Blacks pressure other blacks from voting republican. That’s why estimates of President Bush getting 20 % of the black vote didn’t come true. Because the blacks who told other blacks they wanted to vote for Bush were practically beaten up—–I’M SERIOUS!—–Because I was pressured, insulted, threatened, car-scratched, etc. by blacks who wanted to stay on the “DEMOCRATIC PARTY PLANTATION”.
I tried to show them where freedom is—they refused—–If they only knew (or even accepted) the truth about the past—–the REPUBLICAN party was formed as the ANTI-SLAVERY party.
THEY are the only party with everyone’s best interest in mind.
Oh yeh, Barack Obama will never get any higher than where he is now in the racist Democratic Party—-truth be known!

PS In Detroit, we voted with heavyweight pape and pen. Basically, they have a “broken” arrow pointing at each name and/or write-in slot. To vote, one only has to draw a thick line connecting the arrow tip and tail, which then gets fed into an optical scanner.

IIRC, there were 6 or 7 parties listed, including the Libertarian, Green, Constitutionalist with Raplh Nader at the bottom.

Hey, Drudge posted information on his website and it has sent many repubs into a frenzy. Stated,”Kerry Comfortable with early exit polls”. Yeah, than he puts the rest of the story up that it was mostly women who that were polled. Got to say, it even scared me for a minute.

I voted early during early voting, my 19 year old daughter is working the polls today and voting for W, she called to tell me the crowds had simmered down. She volunteered to take off and work as a poll worker, she said she is learning a lot, I’m proud of her. I’m recovering from knee surgery so I couldn’t work the poll. I was encouraged by W coming to Big D, for a victory rally. I have one thing to say about liberals around this nation, “Don’t mess with TEXAS” Go GW, I’m proud of my President. Thanks La Shawn for your blog. Once I get back to working I’ll donate to your blog.

I voted this morning. It took about 30 minutes. I did not see any voter fraud in Durham, NC. A lot of college students were voting. I live in a heavy Democrat area, so I don’t know what that means.

At the Polls
LaShawn Barber has a good comment thread going over at her place, with people from around the country reporting on their experience at their various polling places today. Most seem to be experiencing heavy voter turnout, which is great news

Well, at 6:10AM where I live, out in the country, there were only 3 people voting when I was there. However, on the radio as I was driving to work, I heard several accounts of unusually long lines, including one in a small town that someone swore was about 300 long.

Reading this blog has been a joy. I am fascinated reading updates from around the country about the voter turn-out. (It feels like everyone is right next-door!) I voted in the shadow of the rebuilt Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. I got in line at 6:10AM then waited 1.5 hours to cast my vote for GWB!

In Oregon…we have vote by mail….even so….I always take it to the place where they would actually count the ballots. I want it to actually get to its destination…..we have 4 votes in our home for Bush…

Numerous voting machines were rigged with extra votes before the polls opened today in Philadelphia. Click on my name to see how it relates to Philly’s 104% registration and what we can do about it. Please spread the word on this story so we can find the rest of the fraud before the day ends.

I was voter number one sixty something at around noon today in my very blue state of New York. Hubby went down around 9:45 this morning and said there were more poll workers than voters. There was only one other person ahead of me when I went down and one person behind me. I was in and out of the booth quickly enough for the little old lady sitting next to the voting booth to be impressed.

There are two different districts represented at our polling place and I noticed that all of the folks sitting at the table for the other district were all wearing red sweaters. A pretty uneventful voting experience. I am so glad that I don’t live in a swing battleground state.

Beautiful day here in SW Virginia. My thermometer is reading 77 degrees. As Daddypundit said, we took the girls and voted mid-morning, then returned to get some schoolwork done. Afterward, I turned on my laptop to see that Zogby says that VA is tied???? I’d be surprised if VA is even close. Nonetheless, Daddypundit has headed out to the polls to hand out sample ballots.

BTW: Met a fellow homeschooler at the polls today. He was working for the Dem’s. Go figure…
