1. Can't vote yet
Polls aren't open. But I will click on the facebook counter after I vote.

4. From what I've seen, I'm not sure that I want millions of people from facebook voting.

9. I'm optimistic about it.
It skews young, and that helps us. I agree there is a lot of conservative yahoo-ism on there, but I think it is all from folks who are eager to vote Republican anyway. For every "like this if you think Obama is a Muslim," there are twenty "like this if you think The Big Bang Theory was awesome this week." The latter types might need to be reminded to vote.

12. 4.6 million. Wow.
This is the kind of stuff that makes old turnout models unreliable. I got a text from the DNC reminding me to vote today with a link to directions from my house to the polling place. It's a brave new world.

22. Top of the home page
Why am I seeing the election day message on my home page?
We show the election day message to all users who are accessing Facebook from a country that is currently in an election period.
