Voting experience in Ohio (Cuyahoga County)
Got there at about 12:30 EST (my location is in an elementary school).

One woman on the sidewalk in front of the school holding a sign for a local candidate. Voting was well-run with about 25-30 people voting at a time...no lines. Staff seemed informed and friendly.

Voting took about 10 minutes and I was on my way.

To be fair, Westlake always has well-run voting locations, so I'm not sure it's a good representation of Cuyahoga County as a whole.

1. This Westlake you speak of is , in fact, East of many other lakes, is it not?
I thought so!

(let no benign post go unchallenged!)

2. All of you (fill in candidate's name here) supporters are using smear tactics!!
Westlake may be east of many lakes, but it's west of many lakes, too! You're misrepresenting the facts!

Have you no shame?

:P

4. I'm done! I was going to move to Ohio and vote at Westlake, but not now never.
In fact I'm selling my canoe, my water wings and swim trunks, my lawn chair and my beach towel.

And you have the gall to talk to me about shame?
