Thank god we got the Sunday before elections restored so they could do "souls to the polls", but will they help transport people tomorrow? I know the transportation infrastructure is great in IA, I assume even better in OH. The polls show we have OH locked down if people turn out.

I remember the 2004 oh debacle with long lines. Hopefully this works.
