A few years back in one of P.J. O'Rourkes books, he discussed his coverage of the Nicaraguan election. And he noted that as the drove through the countryside, people were standing in long lines to vote. And he noted that people won't stand in line to vote for the status quo.
All this week, early voting has been "steady", as in there are always people voting or going through the line to vote. We've never had a time where we didn't have at least 10 voters in the poling place. We've been averaging about 500 voters per day. That's quite a few. Yesterday was bad. There was always a line maybe 20 people at the most.
Remember that mentioned having to stand outside the building directing people in? No need for that today. The line was at least 75 people long ALL DAY. And for longer at times, with it being out the door all day. We had over 1800 voters today. In years past, we'd be lucky if we has 1800 voters the entire 2 week voting period.
So, I'm going to go out on a limb and say people aren't voting for the status qio.... .
