Vote 2008


Early voting in North Carolina began Friday, but I was out of town until late Saturday, so today was the first day I could vote. I just got back from the Weaverville Town Hall after waiting 30 minutes in line — I've taken advantage of NC's early voting in every election since 2000, and this is the first time I haven't walked in and out in less then five minutes. Mine was the 1,463rd vote in the precinct thus far, pretty impressive considering the total population of Weaverville (including children and legal aliens, like those in the house who didn't vote today) is just over 2,500. Lots of cars in the parking lot with Obama bumper stickers, none I could see with McCain. Could NC really turn blue...?
