Ohio Voters: Stay In Line
— Ace

I'm hearing there are long lines in Ohio and some Republicans are bailing from the lines.

Do not bail. It's close.

Put the word out, if you can.

12 Republicans who bail just need to STFU for the next 4 years.

13 Why would you bail?  4 years of thuggery and general scoamfness, I would stand in line till midnight if I had to.

39 How can a line be long? When I went to vote this morning, long line, but got through it in 14 minutes. Probably ten workers checking registrations and handing out paper ballots and probably forty little booths to fill out your ballot. This isn't brain surgery. You just set up enough booths.

41 I really, really don't understand how people can't just stand in a fucking line once every 2-4 years as part of their civic duty, to remove a man like Barack Obama from office. I fully believe this is so for some people. But I do not get it.

I think he's being prudent and proactive by pointing out something that seems to be bad. Even if it's overblown, it doesn't hurt to remind people to tell others to stay in the friggin' line, that the election can be won if they'll do their part. And they are part of the problem if they don't.

You heard that on Hannity....Cunningham said there were long lines but to STAY THE LINE....come on Ace...he did not say any Reps were bailing.  Get your story right.  He was telling the people to be patient!!  The polls there are open until 730PM...Many of those counties are at 70 percent turnout and they are GOP....those people will bail.

 

I wish people would stop telling stories....No one said the people were bailing.  Cunningham did not want them TO BAIL because of the long lines...GEE!!!  Come on Ace!

 

No one was bailing in OH!

Are you fucking kidding me? I stood in line in the rain for 1.5 hours four years ago for Palin (and that jackass McCain) and they can't stomach a little bit of sore foot syndrome to vote out TFG? Holy crap, some people are busy wasting my oxygen,

Posted by: physics geek at November 06, 2012 02:27 PM (1i2AL)

80 Surely if you want one side to win, any side, and you see the lines are long, it must occur to you that many of those people are from the other party. And therefore, your vote is going to help your party. I don't think that's rocket science. But actually I think I give people too much credit, and that doesn't actually occur to a lot of people.

Tens of thousands of Ohioans braved the cold night air to stand for hours at Romney events, I don't think they're about to bail on voting.

118 I brought my own broken glass to crawl over just in case they ran out.

119 People. People. People. Mid-day and people have things to do like pick up kids from school and the like. IF (and it's a big if) people are leaving the line, they will probably be back when they have no time constraints.

124 RNC: Florida Panhandle, Colorado, Pittsburgh Looking Good By Jim Geraghty November 6, 2012 6:40 P.M. Comments0 The RNC sends along: Exit polls show 60 percent of voters say economy is the number one issue and 60 percent say economy is getting worse or has stagnated. Voters say Romney is the best to handle the economy and they trust him to handle the deficit. Update from Ohio – high turnout in GOP counties, low turnout in Dem counties and Biden went to Cleveland. Clearly Chicago is nervous. Good news from the Florida panhandle, Republicans continue to outnumber Dems in Colorado, Romney had a great showing in Pittsburgh and Paul Begala is concerned with the drop in enthusiasm with young voters. For what it’s worth, I’m hearing the GOP turnout in Bucks County, Pennsylvania may be a record; this county was key to Pat Toomey’s win in the 2010 Senate race. The Romney campaign also sounds quite pleased about the turnout in “coal country” of Pittsburgh. But then again, these are sometimes in the eye of the beholder.

126 Sis-in-law (originally from OH) just texted to say her friends back home -- all hardcore Dems -- are posting photos of their ballots on Facebook.

They're writting in Traficant.

Anecdotal, but funny as hell.

127 Oh, by the way, at 8:59 pm EST I'm unleashing my and Axelrod's plan (in that order, I'll humbly add) and swinging the election robustly for Obama. Thus proving the paranoid conspiracy minded folks among those here right! Bwa ha ha ha.

129 Crawl over the broken glass, then ask to do it again, because this election is that important.

130 I seriously doubt anyone who reads this blog is leaving the line. In fact, I doubt any Republican-voting types are, to be honest.

132 Now I want you to remember that no bastard ever won an election by bailing on his candidate!  He won it by making the other poor dumb liberal bastard bail on his candidate!

*slaps the shit out bailing voter*

Get your ass back on that line!

133 People in Florida early voting were in line for eight hours

Only imbeciles wait in line to early vote.  I walked in today at about 1:30pm and there was no line, not even 2 or 3 people, just me.  In and out in 5 minutes.

135 No line at my local polling place right now in northwest Columbus, OH. The poll workers are standing around with nothing to do at the moment. I was here earlier, around 2pm and there was a tiny line, four people if you include myself. All the voting machines were in use though, which was unusual. I'd hazard twice as busy as when I went there around the same time in 2010. I've never been around in the mornings due to my work hours so I don't know what it was like when they opened up.

136 You have to be kidding me...why would a Republican in Ohio bail from the line- do they realize how close it is?

137 Why is Ohio blue?
