7. I just heard that VA does not have early voting? Thought all states had some form

of early voting.

12. i believe alabama does not

have any early voting. there was a post to that effect a couple days ago iirc.
i'm going to google it:

ok, i googled it and found this map.

Alabama has no in person early voting. the same is true for MS and SC.

i'm guessing the early voting in these states consists of absentee ballot voting, but i don't really know.

14. PA doesn't have early voting

in-person.

Early voting is the way to go--especially since population growth makes it hard to do it all on election day without long lines and inconvenience.

15. Where in VA are you?

[luvspeas]

16. Done! 3 hours - back home eating huge breakfast...

FYI- Virginia DOES NOT have early voting. It does have absentee ballots. I don't fit any of the qualifications. My husband voted early because he works in DC. I didn't want to do anything to void my vote.

17. What's your sense for today?

Is Obama going to get his votes to the polls? Does he have momentum?
