[1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2024-10-17 So early in person voting began today in N.C.! I was shocked at the turn out . My wife and I had to wait an hour in a very rural lightly populated county in my state which is deeeep red ,ordinarily during any campaign year it would take 10-15 mins . The bad news is that it looked like 60/40 republicans but the real news is that I have not seen the first day early voting with such enthusiasm since OBAMA!!!! yes we will lose Sampson county as normal in my state but it was crazy . The other observation is out of 100 people in line mostly old white folks I only saw 3 trumpy hats. The last 2 times trump ran you would see his hats and shirts everywhere at the voting locations and oh ya virtually non-existent trump yard signs . You will see a few here and there but nothing close to what its been over the years. Less trump flags as well so I think this is a great start to this year's election! Anyone else in North Carolina vote today? What were your experiences ?
