I just voted (Greenville, SC).
I was the only voter at the polls at 11:15AM or so. There were three contests; mayor and two council positions. The incumbent GOP mayor was unopposed, so no vote from me. Both council positions had Democrats running, and I voted for them. The Democratic candidate for the at-large council post stands a good chance of winning.

3. I voted here in Davenport, IA too
No lines here either, although the ladies told me that there has been a steady stream of people since 7:00 AM. Three people besides me.
Anyway, politics in this city is allegedly non partisan, but we all know who is Democratic and who is not. I voted for a known life long Dem for Mayor, and two known Dems for ward Alderman and Alderman at Large. The other Alderman at Large, I voted for an incumbent who has done all right, even though he wasn't endorsed by the local Dems. I feel good about the candidates I voted for, and there will be massive victory parties later this evening (we hope). And the rats play dirty even in this city too. I got a flier in the mail yesterday attempting to shred one of the candidates for Alderman at Large. The main problem is that not one of the charges was true. How do I know? Because her husband and I have been friends for many many years and so I know the real stories of the accusations. She happens to be a staunch Democrat, by the way. So the repubs just will not show any dignity and fair play. They must feel a need to slander and smear good people.
