In the basement of the UCC church across the street from us. Our only wait was for the Board of Elections drone to find us in the big book. My wife and I got our ballots (optical scan), voted, and were out the door within ten minutes. Go Obama!
Walked to polling place between 10:30 and 11am. The line outside wrapped around the block, and the line inside up and down a long hallway before entering the school gym, which puts you into another long(ish) line at the voting district table.
In the middle of the line I called to reschedule my doctor’s appointment that was supposed to be at 12:30. ($25 late cancellation fee)
Someone in front of me didn’t know which voting district she belonged to, of about 10 or so in the room. I lost track of her, but as I recall from my previous polling place, there’s a table near the entrance where they can look that up for you if you don’t know or lost your voting card. Today our Governor made an executive order that NYCers could vote at any polling place, which I’m sure caused crazy headaches. I wondered what would happen if my name wasn’t in the book - some sort of provisional ballot, I suppose?
This was the first time I’ve voted since they eliminated the old lever machines in NYC. The only option was paper ballots - no electronic machines. The lever machines were faster. It felt like it took forever since I wanted to fill out my ovals VERY carefully. That said, I accidentally voted in the “Conservative” column for three judges, but to my relief the same judges were also on the Democratic ticket, so I didn’t bother re-doing it (I was trying to vote Working Families party).
Nobody asked for any ID. I was delayed in getting my ballot because someone in front of me messed hers up by filling in the ovals next to both places Obama was listed. I guess she REALLY wanted him to win. They wrote VOID on her ballot, and gave her a new one, writing the number on the card. They warned her that if she messed up a third time she’d have to go to the courthouse to vote.
We left the school about 12:40. I would have gone straight to work from there but I had to stop home to pee. A venti iced coffee for a 2+ hour wait is a BAD idea. I don’t know why I didn’t learn that from the 2.5 hour commute to work from Brooklyn last week.
I miss the bake sale at my old polling place. 
We voted at 1:30 PM. No lines, and it took longer to walk from and to the car than it did to actually get checked in and vote.
No line in Northern Virginia. Someone made cookies and left them at the door.
Here it’s three minutes, but it’s up to the poll workers to decide to be strict about it.
Chatsworth. HS bldg across the street. Same as before except they used the library this time. 15 minutes, tops. 4 people ahead of me in line. 6 poll workers.
Easy. I walked in this morning before work and voted. There was no line and I was filling out my ballot within a minute of getting in.
I went after work, showed up at the polling place at 5:00, and waited in line about 40 minutes. There was a surprisingly large (to me, anyway) number of people casting provisional ballots, and there must have been 50 or more people who came in to drop off their absentee ballots at the poll.
I had a barely 18-year-old African-American man in my office today for an appointment. He and his mom came in sporting their “I Voted” stickers. I congratulated him on voting for the first time. He was incredibly proud. Melted my heart a bit.
It was fine. My precinct in Northern Virginia was brisk at 5:00 p.m., but not too crowded. I waited in line about 5 minutes. Oh, of course I took a paper ballot and got to vote immediately when I checked in. There was a long line for the machines. Stupid machines. Paper, peoples! Paper!
I intended to show up when the polls opened at 6 here in Northern VA but actually got there about 6:45. Waited about 1 1/2 hours and finally got out of there about 8:15 to make it to work by 9. I didn’t think that was so bad but now I’m envious of those who can vote so quickly. I used the time to catch up on middle school culture. You can learn a lot about today’s youth by how they decorate their lockers. Apparently, nobody knows how to draw a proper heart. They all use symbols (<3). Also, Clara had a Birthday and is apparently a huge One Direction fan. If I knew who she was I’d know what to get her. Also Lauren has a lot of friends named Emily. Model UN meets the same time as Drama club so you can’t be in both. The photograpy club sounded pretty cool, though. They also had some poems posted and I think one of the writers could really use an intervention. 12 or 13 seems a little young to be writing about digging bodies out of piles of corpses in a war zone. Also, it is apparently forbidden to bring marijuana to school. They do, however, have 2 AED devices. Are there that many cardiac arrests in middle school? Then I amused myself by tallying up who was voting for each party by the color of the sample ballots. Not too surprisingly, older white men were pretty much the only ones with Republican sample ballots while women and minorities tended to go Democratic. Finally, I noticed a nod to improved nutrition since the cafeteria vending machines stocked mostly baked chips and juice rather than soda (although what they call “juice” is pretty much sugar water anyway). I then spent the rest of the time trying to figure out why the Democrats opposed the restriction on eminent domain amendment, shared pictures of pets with people in line, and basically that killed the time.
I vote in rural Ohio at the local volunteer fire station. I walked in at 3:50 PM, presented my ID when asked, and got a voter card. There were four voting machines there, and three were in use, so I had no waiting.
My husband went to vote this morning (at around 9:15 AM) after dropping off our 4-year-old at preschool. He took the 2-year-old with him. There was only one other voter in the place, so the ID-checking lady read our son a story on her Kindle while my husband voted.
