Election Day!

[tanaqui]

This post is for talking about anything and everything to do with election day and the results.

Tell us about your voting experience if you're voting today,

Tell us if you're doing something today to get out the vote or safeguard voting rights, if you're working for a campaign, or if you're making sure the elections run smoothly. (A big thank you to all of you who are poll workers.)

Tell us about how you'll be following the results, about the races you're excited about and any news about results you want to share (whether you're looking for the community to celebrate or commiserate).

If it proves necessary, tell us about any urgent actions we need to take (or make a brand new post about them!)

And let's keep each other company while we wait for the results and see how things will shake out for the next two years,

I'm looking at results coming in on the state board of elections site, and the most depressing thing to me is the "ballots cast" column. Rough estimate, half of the "eligible" voters have actually voted, and yes that's only looking at the "completely reported" counties in the state. Granted, that's working on the assumption that the "out of X" has a fairly accurate X, but I can't imagine it being that far off. So I'm a bit down about that. Hoping it doesn't prove to be our downfall.
