Colorados is 3 pages front and back.
One of the questions is just if they can reformat the judges part so it doesn't ask shall judge so and so be removed from whereever for every single judge because it can't be changed by anyone without a public vote, and conservative radio was arguing to vote no even on that because they will fight on any tiny thing that makes voting slightly easier.

Funny story. I noticed my mom's name on the roll call sheet they have you sign before handing you the ballot. I was voting at 7:15 and my mom had already voted. She always tells us she doesn't vote but I have a feeling she wakes up early to vote every single election. She's registered dem so I guess I can't complain

You know folks, even if you are in hopeless city/state/whatever, it does send a message when they aren't completely unopposed.

Colorado has incredibly high numbers so far. 30% of received votes are from unaffiliated voters which is fantastic.

Dems are actually keeping pace with Republicans as well which is surprising considering the 100k vote gap last midterm.

It's gonna be a good day.

its so dumb, i saw the comparison and it just seems like a vote to save ink on ballots next year.

interested to see how 112 turns out and scared about 74.

I voted last week. Last night was one of the worst nights of sleep I have had maybe ever. I am not even fearful of the outcome, just ready for tonight's inevitable blue bliss.
I just voted this morning. I just wanted to say that I'm glad I'm not the only one who's sleep was affected from this.

As someone earlier said, I'm looking forward to bathing in the tears of racists.

Man I get irritated at people thinking Beto (or anyone for that matter) doesn't stand a chance. Anyone has a chance if enough people get off their asses and vote. And quit paying any serious attention to polls.

+1 for Abrams and McBath in Georgia. Line was about 40 minutes long and was supposedly longer than that when the center opened at 7am. Easily the longest I've had to wait at this location for any election.

Done and done! Hoping for the best. Only saw about 6 other people at the poll, though granted I voted the moment my polling place opened and it's a residential place. Going to check out the news for updates.

Expect the GOP to question the results, if the blue wave is a success but will be happy if the blue wave is a success.

Big turnout in my Twin Cities precinct this morning right when polls opened, but turnout is always large so it's tough to compare.

Lots of close races in the state and we're about to send the first Somali-American to the federal government, so that should be exciting.

Over where I live the DeSantis supporters are going super hard. They have signs all over the place and yesterday there were 10 or so people waving signs in a crowded intersection.

There is this stretch of I4 near Lake Mary that always has a bunch of right wing loonies stretched across it, holding up banners for GOP candidates, and waving at oncoming traffic. I fight the urge to flick them off every time I see them.

Voted just now in VA.

Turns out I got re-districted at some point and couldn't vote for Spanberger. Very disappointed.

But at least I could do may part to keep Corey Stewart out of the Senate.

Because of the timing of everything with me moving and changing states, I can't vote today :(.

PA does not have early voting and an absentee ballot would of taken forever and I'm not fully a NY resident now. So yeah, can't do it today and that sucks ass :(.

Look at your ballot there and do your own research. You have plenty of time before the polls close.

I voted straight blue in Florida via mail. My first time!

I know someone asked earlier and then said like "Oh, nevermind. Posted." But where is a good place to watch poll progress online? I'm gonna be at work until 8pm and I want to keep up to date.

In NY-14. Never seen that many people at a polling place. It was absolutely nuts and ended up making me late for work.

Pretty sure you need your driver's license and to go to a polling place and that's it. Just google your polling place.

Blah. Went this morning. They still had me registered in my old country.

Oh well, at least they allowed me to vote with a provisional ballot.
