One of my co-workers went to vote today and there were by his estimates 1500 people waiting in line around 6:30 AM.

It's part of Westchester which is a suburb of Cincinnati. He had to leave and hopes to vote later in the day.

Where I live I had to wait 20 mins and about 30 people in line. When I left they were pooring in.

Both areas are strong conservative base.

GREAT NEWS! Razz My son decided to vote after work today in hopes the lines would not be this long at the end of the day. He sometimes gets so deep into his job that he loses all track of time, but today he set the alarm on his wristwatch to beep to remind him to get his rear to the polls. Laughing

Warren County: My sister, brother-in-law, and parents all waited in line over an hour. My sister was late getting my neice to school because traffic is so bad. She is going to work the polls and said she can't believe how many people are there. Warren is the fastest growing county in Ohio and a Republican stronghold. Praise God!!!! Very Happy Plus last night my sister went to a meeting for BC04 volunteers and they had more volunteers than they needed. KE is having to pay their volunteers, BC04 volunteers are volunteers!!

A poll worker here said that there were people waiting in line when they came in to set up at 4:30 this morning. The polls opened at 6:00 am.

I've been hearing the turnout is huge around here. A lot of people at my work had to ditch and go to work or wait 1-2 hours and that was 6:30-7:00 in the AM.

One of my Kentucky co-workers said he waited about an hour.

Every polling place I passed was busy on my way to work tieing up traffic. I take secondary streets all the way into downtown and I pass quite a few polling places. One place made me 15 mins late because traffic was so bad in front of it.

Make sure to vote no matter how long the line is after work.....we need as many as possible to get through.
