After I voted I passed this lady on the way out.

I asked her if I could have one of the "I voted" stickers??

She said,, "get your own" 🙁

Funny how the more technology applied to voting, the longer it takes to tabulate the votes....

I was a Democrat "Numbers Runner" in the 1964 election. My cousin was the runner for the Republicans. As the numbers were tabulated at the precinct HQ, at the courthouse, we were given the numbers to take to the Western Union operator at the newspaper office and they would make sure that the numbers my cousin and I had and the number called in from the courthouse were the same before sending them to Oklahoma City. I was in bed shortly after midnight.

it takes less time to get thrown in fakebook jail for questioning election integrity than it does to count the votes that lead to the lack of election integrity

First time I voted since 1972 election, that I felt my vote mattered, Red all the way, Voted in Pa,. Interesting that the ballot for Senate and Governor where not party affiliated, while the representative were.

Just got back from voting in Sierra Vista. The polling place was at a huge church and the parking lot was full. We were told that the line was at least an hour long. We just dropped off our absentee ballots so were in and out in about 5 minutes. This is the largest turnout I've ever seen.

I voted weeks ago in Kansas and there were tons of early voters. The touch screens were a bit glitchy and had to re-enter my vote several times. Hoping for the best, preparing for the worst.

I voted absentee a long time ago. Won't count for much here behind enemy lines. Pissing into a Progressive hurricane.

Me too! I was voter #234 at our little TWP polling place. We live in one of the most liberal counties in Iowa there are only two conservative precincts in the county and ours is one of them. The Gov. has been running an ad that states that here in Iowa we know what boys and girls are, yes we do!

Voted. But I live in PA so it probably won't matter.

Much like expected, the RNC and modern day pseudoconservative globalist republicans failed to present a unified front, splintered their support to candidates that could have turned a win if they'd had party support, looked at their feet with guilty faces when the POTUS calls the entire party a danger to democracy, failed to attack the corrupt democrat party, and like usual, did their best to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory...
...the red wave they have spent months blabbering about, was barely a ripple.

Meet the new boss.
Same as the old boss.

Agreed. The biggest obstacle to Republicans winning elections is the establishment Republicans.

Errata: There's a big full-service Morbark dealer 'bout an hour up the interstate.

I voted in person on election day as well. I was in and out in less than 10 min. Did it during lunch. Took my wife after work about an hour before the polls closed. In and out in less than 10 min. Either everyone voted early...or we had low turnout in my district.

Iowa had pretty much a clean sweep, Governor, the house and the senate all stayed Red and we got rid of a dim attorney general 27 years in office and a dim state treasurer with over 30 years in office. Of 99 counties 6 can usually be counted on to go blue but it was only 4 this time around. How did the vote get split in Wisconsin and put Evers back in as Gov. but elect Johnson to the US Senate? That does not compute.

I’ve heard a few conservative pundits state: “The only thing the Republican Party hates more than democrats is their own voting base.”

Fact is, Michels missed some things he could've taken advantage of and slammed Evers on. So we're back to a double-R legislature and a pasty-faced nothing-but-a-veto-pen governor.

@TOMAHAWK9521: Spot on. It's why, for example, McConnell doesn't get upset and is happy to be in the minority. He likes "the game." He likes being a broker of votes, actual welfare of the voters be damned. He's just one example but that sums up much of the GOP establishment in my view. Some are in the club, most are not.
