I haven't been able to check out the lines yet but I will in a little bit as I need to go to the grocery store but yesterday the lines were out the door and it was mostly African-Americans wearing Obama baseball caps and pins. It was a beautiful sight! I hope to see the same thing today.

Where the majority here were African-American and I just drove by again today where it was the same as well only the lines were a little shorter. There were of course some whites and I think some Latinos as well but mostly AA here.

The clerks told me yesterday was extremely busy though and they expect a big turnout tomorrow (Sat.) since we will have great weather with lots of people out for shopping, school activities and church fairs in the vicinity and this year some libraries will even be open on Sundays for voting. Great weather is expected to continue for days making favorable conditions to get out and vote early vs waiting until November.
