lines at Downtown West Knoxville (very red area) are still long. [View all]

I went the first day to vote and waited over 2 hours. There was a tremendous Dem turnout the first day. Today I had a doctor's appointment and made it a point to check out the same voting place. I have voted in previous early voting elections but have never seen this amount of turnout. today, over 10 days since the early vote start, the lines were still much longer than any other year. much, much longer. there are lots of closet Rupugs and I wonder how they will vote top of the ticket. I am sure they will support downline repugs, but based on political signs any dump support is not visible at all.

Also update on the political signs: almost no Dump signs at all. maybe 2 in a very dense suburban area. Many more than ever were Democratic signs for all the political positions. It is astounding, really. I have not seen this kind of support for the Dems. ever.
I have maintained a residence here for 30 years, off and on coming and going from here. The red-repugs are in retreat, no visible support.
