Indiana and Kentucky close at 6. No shit. And I don't think they had early voting.
Indiana had early voting! My mom early voted!! Long long early voting lines!

Art Crawl!!!
What do Indiana and Kentucky laws say about people already in line when the official polling close time comes around?
Don't many places allow anyone already in line to vote?

Our wings are not tired.
I am exasperated. Housemate (and good friend)finally registered to vote this year (long story; he is paranoid about jury duty or whatever). Just came in my bedroom to chat about tomorrow and discuss various CA propositions and compare notes (I just finished my sample ballot). I was making a comment about how I can't wait until Obama is our president - that he is so inspiring and smart. Charlie then says "I am voting for him, but I am still not sure about him." I give him a "huh?" face. Seriously. Charlie says he doesn't know if Obama is "all that smart, really".
"Are you serious?" I asked, incredulous. Yes, he is. I say: "Um, Charlie, he taught Constitutional Law at a top college and was the president of the Harvard Law Review. The guy is seriously ridiculously smart."
Charlie: "I didn't know he taught Constitutional law or that about Harvard."
Me: "What??! That's like Obama 101!"
And at that point I lost it. Like what hell? How do you read the paper every day and not know this? He's been retired since January. Spends all day reading the paper and watching freaking talking heads on TV all day long. Fut the Whuck? Aaarrrrggggggggggggggggggh.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
"I didn't know he taught Constitutional law or that about Harvard."
??????
Damn.
ION, I am off to vote in a few minutes. Thanks to DST ending, getting up at 5:20 am felt like a normal day.

Great voting weather! I was looking at the weather in various regions last night in my obsessing. Rainy in NC and VA.
DH is in the voting line now. He knew Obama went to Harvard. The lack of knowledge on the part of otherwise intelligent people always surprises me. You would think I would know better by now.
