I know you will receive many stories today about horrific, horrendous and distressing voting experiences, offset by some that will be inspirational, heartwarming and perhaps even hilarious. I thought you might like to know that for some (lucky?) people, the process came off with no problems, no excitement, and no histrionics. I live in Charlotte, NC. I arrived at 6:00 a.m. and there were maybe 30-40 people on line already. Polls opened at 6:30 and I was done at 7:22.
