Lines in Appleton at 2 different precincts

Waited 30 minutes with wife at mine and we waited with daughter for over an hour at the other. Everyone says they haven't seen this before. I think it's a good indication for her.

no lines out the door but we're a small precinct. there were 20 people in line (10 in A-L, 10 in M-Z) and at least 5 registering. and 8-10 actually voting.

by the time i got a ballot assigned, i was the 88th actual voter.

does anyone in other, more red parts of the state have anything to report?

4 different days and each time the line was down the block. She went today and it didn't take long. I think all of the early voting is a good sign.
