The line at the voting station was NONEXISTENT

I did my duty and voted yesterday (Rowlett Texas)-- at 2:30pm, when I got there, it was just me and my sister. The grand total of Democratic votes cast at that time FOR THE DAY (including ours) was a whopping 58. The Republican side claimed 77. Wowzers. I can only hope the actual election brings more people out!

Jeez Louise. Does no one care anymore? Perhaps we DESERVE a dictatorship....

Florida county orders recount in primary
Election outcome unaffected as Kerry easily carries state

(CNN) -- Election officials in Bay County, Florida, plan to recount all of the almost 20,000 ballots cast in Tuesday's presidential primary because of vote-counting irregularities, election Supervisor Mark Andersen said Wednesday.

"I'm not the happiest camper," Andersen said hours before the recount was scheduled to get under way. "We're going to redo everything."

According to Andersen, the county's optical scanner did not count the votes correctly because of a discrepancy between the way the absentee and standard ballots were printed.

Andersen did not release the initial results, but The Associated Press reported that Rep. Dick Gephardt of Missouri held a 2-to-1 lead over Kerry in the county, with more than 60 percent of precincts tallied.

Maybe that was all the democrats there are in Rowlett Texas and they voted while most of the repugs stayed home! :}

All you people who have primary elections coming up, just pretend your voting booth is a time machine.

i went to the delegate meeting. 5 people. 2 worked there. a really old white male, was heart warming and a college kid and me. i am secretary and second delegate. i asked about the democratic party, non existant. and the head dude democrat in the area, seems clueless of what is happening. i said democrats united and he says ya seems like the last year, i wonder why. i sat there and said, cause they are angry. i really felt hopeless with this area leaving there.

Big Spring had less than 13 percent turn out, very sad.

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

I heard that turn out in FLorida was lower than it was in 2000 when Gore was running (at that point) unopposed.

OK DK folks don't flog me but in all seriousness, after Edwards left he's as unopposed as Al Gore was.
