Those that ARE voting, what time are you doing it tomorrow? Bright and early in the morning to avoid the long lines, or late in the day when people are already at home, or sometime in the middle? Or are you just gonna go when ever?

How is voting affected in NY/NJ/etc as a result of the flooding?

Depends on when I can break away. I am dumb and thought I changed my voter registration when I moved here... I didn't so I was one of the last minute turds. I got my registration confirmed but to late to early vote.

Showing up before the doors open. Too many reports of lines out the door to risk losing paid time@work.com!



Voting in New Jersey is going to swing VERY heavily Democrat this year. They are allowing people to vote at any polling station with an affadavit, and they are allowing emailed or faxed requests for absentee ballots, sending the ballots by fax or email and ACCEPTING them by fax or email. Some polling places will be the back of military trucks converted for the purpose. Arguably, this is better than just saying "vote at your home precinct if you can" but I'm not sure it is a great idea to allow EMAIL voting.

I didn't know about the e-mail voting thing.



“It’s about the worst form of voting that has so far been devised from a security point of view,” said Jefferson, a computer scientist at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California. “This is a lawsuit waiting to happen.”

I'll be voting around 6pm after I get done work.

I understand that the emails will be routed through servers run by one of Bain Capital's interests.

But it seems that the homeless and deceased have all cast absentee ballots in Obama's favor.
