Finally voted today - for Obama & Biden - after only a 15-minute wait at the Germantown Community Center. The lines at the Bauer Drive Community Center were incredibly long yesterday and Saturday. I can't stand for long because of knee problems.

I have a feeling that early voting will work to increase voter turnout. A lot of people can't take time off to vote on a single Tuesday.
