Haven't voted yet? Take some pictures and let me see!

This was the line that I stood in at my polling location. I arrived at 5:45 (15 minutes before the polls open) and was 12th in line. There were 25 people in total and everybody seemed very excited that there were that many people there.










This is a picture that Lucas took from his polling place, Logos School in St. Louis, MO. He arrived at 6 am and took this picture 20 minutes later. He claims he was "wrapped around the parking lot". It should be noted that St. Louis County is a crucial county for Obama to carry since it's the largest county in Missouri and the best way for him to counteract any losses (and there will be losses) in more rural parts of the state. So, this is encouraging for the Obama campaign. HOWEVER, people who vote early are probably more likely to have voted anyway, so this necessarily evidence of higher turnout.

Let's see those pictures!






Here is Andrew's experience at around 9:15 this morning in St. Louis. It's a bit lighter than I would've liked considering that turnout in St. Louis County is pivotal to Missouri going to Obama.
