Fulton County (Atlanta) has had 30K votes as of 9am this morning, pushing them to around 475K votes overall. In 2020, they had about 517K. Looking like there will be an increase in votes coming from that county this year. It went for Biden by 46 points in 2020, just FYI.

The few posts I saw on x.is that its fairly quick to vote today in several places around the Atlanta area .

Every four years I spend a few fond moments reminiscing about the time Karl Rove (aka Turd Blossom per GWB) was incensed when Fox called Ohio (I believe) for Obama. Utterly freaked out, he demanded he and the anchor go root out the basement dwelling idiot who made the call, so off they go, camera guy in tow, to confront Stat Boy who basically stuffed them. Not changing it, end of story.

Yeah, with Georgia having already logged 80% of their 2020 total votes as early votes this year, lines should hopefully not be too bad on election day there.

Same should be true in NC, where we have also exceeded 80% of 2020 total vote before election day.

1. The amount of crossover votes, and whether one side gets disproportionately more crossover (historically it has been about equal, but there are reasons why that might not be the case this year).
2. The independent vote split. If one party or the other gets a disproportionate share of the indy vote, that affects things.

These will be used to declare voting fraud. That might be worth a pie bet, though I doubt anyone would take it.

Reminder to everybody voting today, Joe Biden can still win if enough of us write him in.

He's been quietly campaigning, mostly in Pennsylvania, in recent weeks.

Saw one comment about bad weather in Arkansas and one about good weather in central PA. Anyone aware of any other weather issues that could suppress the vote anywhere, in particular in swing states?

Gloom and rain all day in much of Wisconsin, though drier in the SE corner of the state, where both Madison and Milwaukee sit, than up North.

Biden-Biden, the unity ticket.

Yes, I understand they told him it was Scranton. Whatever it takes!
Where ya been, Wilson? Remote mountain cave?

In my polling place this morning, they have only a few electronic machines that have a wait, but a ton of ballots to fill out manually so most people doing that so as to not have to wait. Crowded still in a political active community with no competitive contests whatsoever to vote on. But I wonder if the "Technology" gap is similar across other areas and perhaps could impact the vote counting speed.

I heard he was having a ball on a deserted island

Maybe it's just me, but always felt like they could have made a great sequel to Cast Away where Tom Hanks character has this voyage into madness where he can only make love to hookers wearing Wilson volleyball masks.
