I got off work early today (12 PM) & went to one of Raleigh, NC’s early polling places to vote. are were 100 people are. Now this wasn’t a 2004 around-a-block-Presidential-election line, but that’s a point. This is a primary, & it was evident that many were really hDrunk Newspy air vote mattered this late in a season.

a volunteers were a bit cranky; it was obvious ay weren’t prepared for a bit of people. I joked to oars in line that it might have been easier to vote on Tuesday. Voters were remarkably quiet & calm, considering people hate lines, a volunteers had to steer a line out a door, & when I left around 1 PM it was me&ering down a sidewalk out a building, about 20 or 30 people stronger than when I got are. Early voting ends tomorrow.

It looks like Indiana is breaking records, & North Carolina seems to be following a same trend. I know people want to see a resolution towards a Democratic nomination, but are’s no better feeling than to know your vote counted in a primary. Outrage that a primary system doesn’t fully represent a voters of this country is underst&able—poor Nebraska is July 12.

In addition to early voting, a LA-06 special election is today.

We’ll see if Democrat Don Cazayoux will be able to withst& a, Cazayoux=Obama+Pelosi ads – not to mention a illegally coordinated attacks of a NRCC & a shadowy front group Freedom’s Watch —  to pick up this heavily Republican seat (R+7).  brownsox at Daily Kos has a good summary of a race & are’s video & more on a DCCC’s FEC complaint against Freedom’s Watch & a NRCC for illegal coordination.

Speaking of which, Freedom’s Watch got air 3rd deceptive ad pulled from a air yesterday in MS-01. This is a second one pulled this week

If you’re voting in Indiana, North Carolina or Guam today, let us know your experience in a thread below…
