NUMBERS.

Just voted. Arrived before 7:30, stood in line about 25 minutes and was the 175th person to vote in the precinct. Voted Democrat in all the important races, Green in a couple of no-chance county offices and No on a city referendum to expand waterfront-wrecking authority. The line grew while I was there but so far they seem prepared for the turnout. A few people looked at the long line and left, but who knows why.

More tonight.

[UPDATE: First early exit poll shows Kerry up 52-43 in Wisconsin; many voters reportedly challenged in Racine, GOP vans' tires reportedly slashed in Milwaukee. Everyone go vote.]
