From Dave in Columbus:
Here’s the scoop from Columbus (Ohio.) If you remember yesterday I told
you leaving the downtown was wild, Bush and Kerry singholders all over the
place. However, the Bush people had the better locations to swing
neighberhoods and suburbs while the Kerry people were posted by off ramps
and streets heading to the more liberal “urbane’ areas they will win
anyway.
As far as the voting this morning. My wife and I waited an hour to vote
and we live in a strong W area. Other W area people reported the same. My
secretary and some others in the office that live in strong Kerry areas
also waited an hour or so to vote. Here’s the deal. No one has ever
waited to vote before. Either everyone is voting now or this will be the
record turnout everyone predicted. That having been said, friends of mine
both at GOP HQ and Dem HQ are ecstatic both laying out convincing
arguments and statistics of why that works for them. I am still
predicting a W victory, but it’s going to be wild!
