(2008-11-04) Voting Process

Today's the day for voting in the Presidential Election (and others).

Twitter Vote Report is using Twitter to report voting problems.

• there's another group focusing on the bigger voting issues.

At 7:58 I went past the local polling place, and the line was really long. A woman coming out said she had arrived at 6:15, they'd opened at 6:20, and she had just voted! I'll try a bit later after the straights have gone to work. I submitted that to Twitter Vote Report at 8:10. As of 8:15 they have 903 reports, of which 148 provide wait-times.

Started 10:25, didn't get to machine until 13:45!
