The poll workers in my precinct (North Heights Church of Christ) reported very high voter turn out.

Joy Lutheran on 91st and Yale has been packed since open, and the little Bethany church to the south of my office on 66th and Sheridan has been packed all day too.  I've never seen anything like it. ;D

I went to my polling place for an early lunch (about 11am).  I had my crib sheet for the state questions of how I planned to vote, and got my ballot and finished within 5 minutes.  I was number 165 (Precinct 040; Eastwood Baptist Church).

I am wearing three "I voted" stickers. When people stare at me, I say, "I'm covering all the bases."

I too am wearing three.  When people ask me, I say "I'm a Democrat from Chicago."  ;)

I drove by the graveyard after voting this morning and put stickers on all of the grave stones, several other motorists were confused and thought they were in Ohio.

The tally machine at my voting place showed nearly a thousand and that was at mid-afternoon.  I think turn out may be greater than expected this time around.

May you live in interesting times.

Do you think the state questions got most of the people out or do you think they are that energized by the state offices? 

No one mounted a serious challenge to Coburn or Sullivan and I was more than happy to vote for my incumbent state rep, she's done a great job.

Conan points out the problem in absolute terms;  "my representative" is great - it's all the others that those other people should vote out.

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

I have no clue what you are smoking, but you really should share.

FWIW, "my representative" is a Democrat.  I chuckle when I think of Michael Bates calling her the most liberal member of the Oklahoma House.  I have yet to find anything terribly liberal about her.

You ARE talking about MBates...he likely thought Reagan was more liberal than Ted Kennedy...

I know I voted for Sullivan just because I didn't want to worry about him driving around at 2:15am with me in Tulsa.

The voters of Oklahoma have only had the ability to vote against "the gays".  This is the first time they got a chance to pass a meaningless bill calling out Muslims.
