Voter #44 - my latest start yet! Voted for about 20 Democrats (GO KRASNER!), 3 Republicans (1 uncontested, 1 Italian, and beautiful Emil Giordano who is perfect in every way), 4 tactical blanks so as not to disadvantage my other choices. Retain on majority of the higher ranking judges / no retain on most of the lower ones where public info was severely limited (neither unanimously). Make them work for it.

No on the increased property tax exempted amount
Yes on the bond issuance.

Yep. In PA we only have municipal and city elections with that state supreme court seat up for grabs but I still drove 45 minutes back to my home from my university to vote. Made both my parents vote. I even got my older sister to vote at State College. Every election is crucial.

Voted absentee about a month ago since I'm at college. Straight D for partisan offices (living in a conservative town in a conservative county, it's unlikely they'll win below Gov but honestly wouldn't be shocked of 1 or 2 of the Ds snuck a win for legislature since Hillary won my LD by 200 votes), wrote in myself and some friends for unopposed school board stuff, and yes on both ballot questions.

For those of us (me) to lazy to check for ourselves (myself), what other major elected offices are being voted on today other than those in Virginia, New Jersey and the Utah special House election?

I believe the New York mayors race is today or something.

No, no elections where I live.

I believe the New York mayors race is today or something.

Wikipedia has a list of mayoral elections, but I'm not sure it's exhaustive: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_elections,_2017#Mayoral_elections

Also, I know Knoxville has city council elections and I'm sure many other cities and counties have local stuff as well.

Thanks!

Yes.  They usually have voting on computer screens, but this year it was with scantron sheets.

Gov:Hyra (L)
LtG:Vogel (R)
AG:Adams (R)
HD-89:Hurst (L)
Sheriff: Baron (D-endorsed, non-partisan ballot)
Treasurer: Voogd (R-endorsed, non-partisan ballot)

didn't vote for the non-contested races, which I didn't bother researching.

Yes, Mayor and Three City Council. No ballot measures. There was a software glitch with the new readers so the line was held up for 7-8 minutes. New machine is not as big as old ones. But still teething troubles. This was a practice run for 2018, so as to not have the SOS accused of our state being incompetent.

I didn't bother with the "I Voted" sticker.

No, my day was hijacked by Russian interference.

The Russians must have stolen the 2017 election since there was no election here.

Sent in my absentee ballot last month, so I am (very) partially responsible for the D-wave we experienced tonight.

No. Always vote before the election is held thanks to mail-only voting.

Yes, and there was a huge political earthquake in my ward, as an incumbent went down big for supervisor (the lady who whipped him is wearing the bow tie), and the old Scalera machine was crushed in general, as in addition to his supervisor pal biting in the dust in my ward, his daughter went down for alderman in my ward, and his long time toady was unseated in the 5th ward after a 24 year tenure).  My art studio garage was used as the political war room for candidates I supported in the 4th and 2nd wards. It was quite exciting.
