Franklin County (Columbus Ohio) Update
ON the local news channel they just showed a precinct with hundreds of people waiting to vote. This is inner city Columbus and 95% of the people shown on camera were African American. Said it could be after midnight by the time everyone votes.

1. What a joke. This is a travesty. Who is responsible for this mess?
Criminal negligence in not providing enough voting booths.

I was really afraid they wouldn't, somehow.

7. I was in line for 3 hours
and heard other people say that there were waits for as long as 5 hours. Dear God, please let this be worth it-or I may never vote again!
