Can't emphasize enough how important it is for us all to vote today. Please get out there if you haven't.
Nothing to see here. Continue swimming.

I was number 60 an hour after it opened in my small town.

This. We have to win by a significant margin. Otherwise: recount -> they cheat -> we lose -> unchecked chaos -> Ebola

Democracy was not meant to be a spectator sport.

Funny; but activism really has made a change in the MN gun scene. If we'd sat back and done nothing we'd have gun laws like New York or California. Gun ownership IS under attack, the strident denials of "reasonable" gun law proponents not withstanding.

I don't expect useful change from politicians but if I had to have a wishlist; lower taxes, protect our borders, allow suppressors, machine guns (including new ones) and remove this stupid ACA boondoggle at least that's where I'd start.

As a start, I'd prefer they simply reinstate the constitution, where the Federal government enjoys no power without an explicit constitutional mandate granting that power.

My township had a 60% turnout as of just a few minutes ago. The election officials said that was pretty high already. In 2012 I think we went 60+% for Romney. Hopefully all the liberals in the Cities will stay home today.

On the down side my name was the only one on the ballet for Township treasurer. They caught me at a weak moment when I voted in the primary. The current treasurer really wanted to retire after 32 years.

Cast my vote just now. I really hope we can oust a few of these politicians that have been making a fool of themselves the last couple years.

Is there a website for current voting results so far, or do I have to wait til tomorrow?

Turn on a TV; you won't be able to avoid it.

No results yet, but there is live radio broadcast video of k-talk: http://www.centralmediaservices.com/ktlk-live/

I was #288 at around 11AM in my ward. Had a TON of unopposed judges (10th district court) running for re-election including one that was our former city attorney....wish someone was running against him so I could have voted against that former city attorney. As it was, I left all the judgeships unchecked.
Get off my lawn!
