@joefromchicago,
Describe your experience:
Alarming. I wanted to vote for Obama but everytime I filled in the box beside his name, within a few seconds it would be empty and the Romney box filled! I told the Election Offical, but she just smiled.
Where's the polling place? Church basement? High school gym? Auto repair shop? Aquarium?:
Elementary School Gym
Morning? Afternoon? Evening? Last week?
This morning at 10:30am
Long lines or quick-and-easy?
No line at all
How did you cast your ballot? Punch ballots? Touch-screen? Colored balls dropped in a fish bowl?
Paper ballot, fill in the boxes
How much time did the process take?
10 minutes or so
How many offices were up for election? Governor? Senator? Dog catcher?
Can't say exactly but my guess is about 16 - half of which had Republicans running unopposed. Senator and congressman included, the rest local.
Any interesting ballot initiatives/referenda?
None
Examples of obvious politicking near the polling place? Any poll watchers from the UN?
None, although there were Romney/Ryan signs outside the school grounds - no Obama/Biden signs.
Did you get a sticker?
Yes
