As much as I want to know the results, I wish they wouldn't *call* anything until the last polls close on the west coast. Sadly i think people see who the "winner" is and decide not to vote. I hope that doesn't happen. A lot of times the news stations base their early reports on exit polls until the votes are counted later into the night. No matter what though, I'll be glued to the TV
We have never had to wait in line to vote in the 5 years we have lived here and today we had to wait 25 minutes. I'd rather wait a bit than see no one there. We kind of had to explain what to do to the young kids who were behind us. It was so refreshing to see all of the young people there!
