It will be 4:00 am MST when I wake up on Election Morning, so I will say between 6:00-8:59 am EST.  I plan to be on by 4:30 (6:30).

Local time: probably around 1 to 6 a.m. Wednesday. Which translates to 7 p.m. to midnight Tuesday EST

This really should've been a multiple choice poll.

A bit in the morning before I leave Champaign and probably a little in the early afternoon, but then I plan on being out.

Fifth choice, but on and off throughout the day as time allows, then focus on the returns on TV, and if Obama's going to win (i.e., if they call VA and / or OH for O) I'm probably headed to a watch party with a couple bottles of Cabernet!

I'm hoping for something like his hourly turnout reports from last time:

Light orderly lines at my polling station at 7:05 AM.

8:00 AM no line.  Maybe one voter going in.

9:10 AM, no line, one voter walked in.  PA 11th Ward, two polling stations.

I had to have missed something.  No line at 10:10 AM.  I cannot believe turnout is really that much down.

This is not necessarily indicative.  I drove past four precincts to get lunch.  The only line I saw was that KFC.  In three of the four precincts, there were no voters coming or going; the fourth has a couple leaving.  This was at about 11:30 AM to noon.

There could have been a lot of early voters.

The Chinatown precinct, previously mentioned, is the largest in the city.  Temple University is the only other one with moderately high numbers.

At 12:15 PM we had rain.

How can you not just plan your entire life around the inner workings of this forum? You all are ridiculous.

Come home from work, probably camp out here. Better coverage here than on CNN.
