In MA, we don't even have the signature thing! You just tell them who you are.
I'm not expecting much, if any, lines.
I think the Senate race will bring people out, but really have no idea -- there was no line for the primary at my polling place.
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
How weird is it that I didn’t realize until yesterday that NY had a Senate race this year?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If Florida goes blue I'll pee.
There is no way I can read this sentence that doesn't make me think of pregnancy tests. Is Allyson having Florida's baby?
I don't care if there's precedent, I am open to a "no to asteroids slamming into the Earth" platform.
Asteroidist!
I voted. It took an hour. Now I am at work biting my nails down to stumps while my kids are at home eating my pumpkin pie.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'll be leaving the house in a few minutes to go (stand in line to) vote.
I have a 9:20 dr appointment, and I really hope I am not late for it.

In MO and KS, I've ALWAYS had to show an ID to vote. I mean, it could be a college ID or some such, but ID, yep. (Voting since...1990)

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
They usually ask here, but they're not supposed to except at early voting.

Is it contested?

Worcester has a ridiculously low voting rate, so I'm sort of expecting the same from Holden, but I could be wrong. There are certainly quite a few signs for the senate race around here.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It must be lingering effects of the time change, but I woke up early and couldn't get back to sleep so I actually came in to work early today.
Also, new tag for today.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Is it weird that in NY, they son't require ID to vote? They have books with our signatures in them, sorted by address, and then you sign next to your name.
I have never had to show ID to vote until today. But, you know, Ohio.
I got in and out with maybe a 10-minute wait. And I GOT EXIT-POLLED! I am so fucking excited about that! I've never been exit-polled before! I think I scared the exit-poll worker, because when she asked me if I would agree to fill out an exit poll, I practically lunged at her and said, "Really??? YES!!! I've never been exit-polled before!!!"
