    I voted after work about 5pm. Wasn't a line, wasn't a sign mandating masks or anything considered abnormal. Seen one of the helpers wearing a face shield so I went ahead and put on a mask. Walked up to the table and signed for my ballot. 4 were sitting at the table, one with a plastic face shield, 2 with masks on and the 4th had his mask around his chin.

    Grabbed ballot and voted no to the Amendment to the State Constitution to allow progressive tax hikes and proceeded to vote straight Republican. Another voter entered and was chatty with the 4 at the ballot table and she said to the guy wearing his chin protector, "I see you all the time at xxxx" local tavern. Made me feel safe :lol:

    When I fed my ballot into the machine and it tabulated it, I was the 433rd person to submit a ballot today. Higher than 2012 and 2016, but I am unsure how many people are in my precinct.

    280-251 Trump wins is my guess at this point.

    Republican election count watchers are being turned away from counting sites, not allowed in even with documentation in hand.
    They know they can steal an election because conservatives won't uprise. They stand back and complain but refuse to fight back....just is.....

    WTH is going on with these vote counts being stopped until later in the week. There needs to be a national standard in election policies. No more BS..... ID's and or signature checking. Absentee ballots only. No more mail in's period. Early voting for all states on same set # of days and all on same days. All votes counted the night of election or following day for absentee.
    Presidential election are national not state. States should be mandated to follow national standards in presidential election years.

    There is a standard... The Monday after the second Wednesday in December... The day of the electoral college vote.

    Effectively, everything else is noise. How the states tally and recount is up to the states.

    How about those pollsters? What they are doing is a misinformation campaign that is more egregious than any Russian plot.

    Colorado game didn't win. Looks like they voted to introduce Grey wolves.

    Past that, I'll reserve guessing.
