We're just 12 hours away from putting Joe Scarborough and Rachel Maddow in internment camps. Don't let up now.!

10 polling locations around Fulton and other counties will stay open longer due to the “bomb threats”.
Let’s not forget that all the electrical, AC, and water companies are on standby for the ensuing “outages “, and “burst pipes”.

Seeing all the problems with voting today, I hope you were able to vote successfully.

My polling station opened 20 minutes late due to "technical issues" I call bullshit. I was the 7th person on line; however four individuals in front of me left because they lost patience and had to go to work.
Then the drama unfolded when I went to electronically submit my ballot; the machine "WOULD NOT" read my ballot despite filling out the ballot correctly;
The technician from the BOE that manages the ballot scanners and supervisor of the polling site approached me; one tried to mislead me in terms of how to fill out the ballot and the other person (the supervisor) was certain that I filled out the ballot correctly. Then this problem occurred to others nearby as well. Instead of escalating the problem even further, I went to a DIFFERENT ballot scanner and after 2 unsuccessful attempts; third time was a charm. Poll workers had a feeling who I was voting for; they clearly did not want my ballot to be scanned. WITH PERSISTENCE, I was able to get the machine to scan my ballots. I walked out patting myself on the back for a job well done; a Republican poll worker walked with me outside the building and apologized for the frustration that other poll workers were giving me but thanked me for exercising my right to vote; he knew where I was coming from and told me to have some faith in the voting process; he unzippered his fleece and he revealed that he favored the Republican party just like I did; I told him, we are in this together.

Sadly, who knows how many voters were deterred and/or discouraged from voting today due to all the technical woes

What worries me is that my ID was never checked; I only signed my first name; my signature was not verified; I took note of all the flaws in the voting process.

Was it meant be rigged and manipulated? The complaints go on; despite being from a blue state,

I am certain that something will change tonight. Already the numbers are coming in and Trump is taking the lead!
