STEADY FLOW, NO LINES
Steve and I went to vote at 9:30, figuring we'd avoid the pre-work rush. While the booths were steadily occupied, there was no line. We ran into one of our neighbors, who extended sympathies over our break-in. Though early voting was very heavy in Dallas, there are only a few places to vote early. Things seem pretty normal on election day, despite one of the most hotly contested congressional races in the country and a lot of Kerry voters who want to stick it to their Bush-loving neighbors in the Park Cities. We were voters 318 and 319 at our polling place. My pals at D Magazine's blog have similar reports of line-free voting.
