In line to vote

[ckd]

Looks like there might be more people in line right now than voted at all in this precinct in the unopposed special election for state Senate in 2007. Impressive.

ETA 1029: Voted, at the office now. Took about 20 minutes, but the lines were quite a bit shorter when we left than they were when we arrived.

There was no line at my polling place (Cambridge ward 1 precinct 3 - Miller River Apartments, near the intersection of Cambridge and Cardinal Medeiros) at about 10:20am although most of the voting booths were occupied. Also, for some reason, my name did not appear on the main voter roll but instead on some alternate roll. I don't know why. I have been registered to vote here since 2006 (and the election commission verified my registration status yesterday).

my name was on a different list from ckd; no idea why!

Yes, there seem to be widespread problems in Cambridge. Check out centralsquare.

I'm feeling quite optimistic, and that's not my normal mental setting.
