Voted around 8am this morning - probably double the line I had in 2016 (new town so no prior point of comparison). Not a Millennial to be found.

Voted in NJ - 11 around 11am. Nobody there, I was the only person in the polling place... in and out, easy.

First time midterm voter. Embarrassed to admit that I used to not vote just because I couldn't be bothered, knew NJ was going to be blue in presidentials, etc.

Had to vote for the first time against Trump, because ldo, and now that we're locked in an existential crisis, I'm sure I'll vote in every election from here forward.

Wish I had someone more inspiring than Menendez to vote for, but thems the breaks. Happy enough to vote for Mikie Sherrill, and there's some question about the district but it seems safe-ish for the good guys...

Zomg polls close in 15 minutes!

2 hours and 15 minutes.

Short lines are the norm in District 11, there are plenty of polling places.

NJ, 4:30 pm, more people than usual and like 8 cops hanging around. In and out pretty quick. I didn’t see any millennials either.

Menendez, eh. Definitely like to see him go but no way will I hand his seat over to somebody aligned in the R column right now, not when the GOP clings to every corrupt POS they have in the Senate. May as well choose the corrupt POS who votes in our interest and isn’t an imbecile.

Mrs. T voted as well. So too did my eldest daughter (via absentee from abroad) who I am sure exactly canceled my vote.

Voted KY-6 around 2 PM. My precinct is downtown, looked like very solid African American turnout while I was inside. Waited ~10 minutes but a big line of people came right after me. Turnout was HIGH according to election workers. We do not have early voting.

Voted after work. OH 12 (Danny O'Connor). Had to wait about 10 minutes. Woman in front of me in line had a blue door hanger that the Democrats have been distributing, listing their endorsed candidates - I'll take that as a healthy sign.

I had a sample ballot from the Franklin County Democrats, which turned out to be super helpful because the judges weren't listed with any party affiliations on the ballot. Voted yes on proposition 1 (reduced penalties for use of drugs), but am skeptical it's going to pass.

Let us gogogo.

Just voted. In blue as **** Vermont, but the lines were unlike anything I (or the town volunteers) had ever seen, even for presidential years.

Voted at 2pm in Norman, OK. Polling place busy all day so far, which is abnormal.

1000% agree. Snap Menendez every day vs. anyone associated with the R's. Just would have been nice to have someone inspiring like AOC or Beto to vote for...

Wow, that's so awesome. THanks for sharing!







Did you vote yet??







Amazing, thanks for doing this







Thanks for being a voter and jumping into the midterms! Remember this feeling of urgency, we need to show all these *******s the door.







GOGOGOGO!







Thanks for voting! Ohio has so much at stake this cycle.







LOL. I would have asked if that were required. Way too many hall monitors turned voting inspectors in states with strict ID requirements, getting their rocks off busting balls.







Thanks for waiting in line. It's a ****ing travesty that it takes anyone hours to vote.







Wow. Thanks for voting and going so early . I was snoring at 6 and 605 and 650.







Awesome. There are some competitive house races in NY state I think, but not NYC.







wow. Hope you guys can vote that republican out. Thanks for voting







Yay! thanks for voting!







holy. ****. How's the energy in the crowd?







Good luck, let us know what it's like at 1!







All these signs of crowds are so heartwarming. Thank you for voting.







Wow. Commenting on all the lines, it's a great sign for enthusiasm, and a really bad sign for how hard it is for some people to vote. If your state is D they need to pass voting rights!







Yes. This.







Not pointless . Gotta play all 48 minutes.







Yeah every vote counts, for enthusiasm, for future fundraising, for all of it.







Bananas. Thank you for voting!







Cool, thanks for voting!







God Trey Gowdy is such a clown. Fingers crossed







Cool, thanks for voting!







Thanks for voting!







holla. THank you for voting and for being willing to risk life limb and testicle.







Stacey Abrams one time!~!!!!!!!!!!!111!!!! Thanks for your patience. How's the crowd? Energetic?







Cool, thanks fro voting! Especially for Rosen!







LOL. My buddy wrote in my name on some nothing office as a troll for my pestering him to vote. Thanks for voting!







Thanks for voting







Yeah, lines for voting are so bad. Makes me so grateful I have it easy. Thanks for voting!







Easy peasy. I really hope Menendez holds on, schmuck that he is. Thanks fro voting!







Awesome. Thanks for voting!


Quoting so it doesnt get lost in this threads notifications.

Canvassed one neighborhood in CA 48 today. Newport beach.

I hit 90 homes in 4 hours. Almost 50% answered the door. Over****ingwhelming support for rouda. Almost everyone had voted except two people who i gave info to about what they needed to do, but they were very enthusiastic.

Only two dickbags and two super weirdos. Only one “**** off” which i felt like i was running hot.

We were mostly hitting likely voters with provisional ballots that may not have sent them out yet, so obviously my results are going to be biased but from the feedback I got I was very encouraged.

I missed about a dozen houses on my route but I had taken 30,000 steps (about 10+ miles) and was wiped out, had to pee, and getting tired. It’s so exhausting but ill be doing it again in 2020.

Pretty sure that’s fifteen miles or so. Well done in all events.

I'd be interested on how long your steps are.
11-06-2018 , 11:39 PM
Average is 2.6 feet, I think.
