62. Today has been steady
Tue Nov 5, 2024, 03:30 PM
Nov 2024

We had about 50 people waiting when we opened the polls. Since then it has been steady. This is the first time I have been able to get online. Lots of first time voters, both very young and seasoned citizens. Barbque down the street with good music wafting our way when someone opens the outer door. It is a good day for the United States!

Wouldn't it be great if the enthusiasm at the rallys equals the enthusiasm for turnout. bullimiami Nov 2024 #7
Enthusiasm is essential in politics. If it's missing among the stalwarts, the rank-and-file turnout will suffer. jaxexpat Nov 2024 #56
