As I was leaving, I happened to remark to a Fed-Ex deliveryman that I was surprised to see it so crowded. He told me that it'd been that way for the past couple of weeks!
Although I have a feeling that I may not be too happy with the outcome of this year's election, I do think on the whole it's a good thing for our country for its citizens to show a higher level of civic engagement than has been the norm in recent years.

Where do you live?
I'm in Florida, voted last Tuesday and I waiting in line for 2 hours.
I think it's a good sign.
I do not remember the lines like this in the last election.

I had not realized you could vote ahead of time. I guess I was out to lunch when that was mentioned. Thanks for the informaiton.
My hope is we have more informed voters. The big thing isn't how many people vote, but how many people really understand the issues when they vote.
Here in CA, any registered voter can cast his/her ballot up to 29 days ahead of time at the county elections office. Mine had both electronic voting machines set up and paper ballots.
i voted by mail...lol. much easier than waiting in a line. I recommend it. :)
