Noticed the same thing this morning. Our line was out the door to the street and people were standing in the rain. Safe to say that this election has gotten the attention of lots of traditional "non-voters", judging strictly by turnout alone.

I was going to ask that. Do you guys have to provide photo ID when you vote? I had to this morning and they checked my name off the roll based off of my DL.

How are these folks voting on deceased voter ballots when they're required to show ID? Are the pollsters aiding?

I voted this morning for the first time since I moved to Clinton. What a boondogle. Stood in the rain for about 20 minutes at a little church. We voted paper ballots and then cast them into a machine. I haven't voted paper ballot in 15 years. Really didn't realize there were folks still using them. The way the ballots were printed some of the elderly were having a hard time figuring out which bubble to circle.

The other thing I don't like about how they do their elections in Hinds county is having to go to two different places to vote (one for local and one for federal). That just seems shady from the get go to me.

ours' was slooooow, but was due to retiree poll workers socializing with the other retirees (who they haven't seen since last election cycle). 2 of the 10-12 machines occupied while the cattle gap minder had his back turned to them, talking...many of the cattle mooing and motioning about open machines to an oblivious worker who's main purpose is to release the cattle to open machines.

**and don't you try to go through that gap without their nod!!**

They called MS for Trump as soon as the polls closed. Seemed to be pretty anti-climatic. :lol:
