One of the best ways to identify what’s going on in any area is a ground report from the people most familiar with it, that’s YOU. If you are voting today perhaps you would consider sharing a ground report from your town, city, neighborhood or voting precinct.
How’s the turnout? Any issues or concerns? What’s the overall climate amid your voting locales? Please feel free to share your personal perspectives in the comment section along with any links to any information you feel might be valuable or interesting.
What’s going on out there?
Our son voted today in Somerville, MA, a very red and heavily populated suburb near Boston. He said that there was no line and only 3 to 5 voters inside.
Just FYI, the City of Somerville was on a list of cities and areas that the Feds are watching for voter fraud. I think the list was posted here, but not entirely certain.
I noticed the list of those cities because one of them, Lowell, is one town away from me.
Years ago I lived in Somerville too. Yep, Moonbat Central!
Do you mean the Somerville MA that borders Cambridge and is populated heavily with Boston academics and students?
Yes!
Gotcha, thanks, I had no idea it was a red area.
When you said “very red” (Republican) didn’t you mean “very blue” Dem?
I’m 30 mi west of the Cape, same here.
Walked right in and voted, probably 10 minutes top.
My hunch is a lot of dems are staying home.
From your mouth to God’s ear…
I’ll eat my hat if Somerville is red. They used to be redder than Cambridge but the WW2 era working folk are dying off, the academic-yuppie juggernaut moved in, and the town has gentrified into Green New Deal type of craziness.
Republican congressional candidate in Pennsylvania sues over mail-in ballots https://trib.al/6yuXZ1x
A tension headache from fretting over the election prompted me to clear my mind with a drive through God’s gorgeous western NC creation. On the way I stopped by two small-town polling places – in Tuxedo and Saluda, NC – and chatted with those handing out voting guides. As I found earlier in the day, turnout has been steady but low, due primarily to an early vote turnout of around 65% of registered voters. In both places the Democrats seemed a bit lonely!
In Tuxedo the two GOP party reps talked about how they remember thinking Reagan’s win in 80 saved the country and how they now see it only delayed the slide leftward. Then they talked about the importance of law and order, the right to bear arms, and what their families, generations in the area, had fought for.
In Saluda, the two Dems, the two Republicans, and I talked mostly about the fall beauty. But as I left I noticed something; the Democrats were masked and the Republicans showed their faces. That pretty much sums up the choice we’re facing: Biden’s “dark winter” vs Trump’s call to us to move forward into light.

#Election2020
: Results from key swing state North Carolina will be delayed https://trib.al/dgHNFff
What isn’t the C_A mouthpiece giving a reason why ? To many Trump votes to corrupt ?
If your question is about the delay in NC, it is because 4 precincts had glitches at the start of the day one of which was in my county. State law says they cannot report results until ALL precincts have closed. Plan is to shut those down at 8:15 with results coming in after that
SanJak;
“,…too many Trump vptes to COUNT?”
FIXED IT
One of the heads of the Oregon GOP said last night that we could expect as many as 90% turn out for Republicans in Oregon, The normal is about 33%.
My my… Oregon might turn red this time!
ANYONE IN A STATE EXPERIENCING EXTREMELY LONG LINES AT POLLING STATIONS GRABS WATERS, PIZZA, PB&JS WHATEVER YOU CAN A GO THERE AND GIVE IT ANYONE WHO NEEDS IT THATS WAITING IN LINE REGARDLESS OF PARTY. WE NEED TO HOLD THE LINE. IM IN DEEEEEP BLUE COUNTRY THERES NO LINES HERE.
Why is Joe Biden addressing the Nation tonight?
The media told him he won
Except he won’t
To announce a coup d’etat ? MAObama’s generals (McChrystal, et alii) to the rescue?
He may claim he won the election. I’ve heard this is one of the lefts’ game plans (not a good one – they are batting a thousand in bad ideas, in my opinion).
He isn’t. Don’t pass on half information….his campaign spokesperson said if the Fake News calls the election for him tonight he will speak.
He’s going to announce that he won the election and will not be conceding, no matter what. He claims he does not want to be another Al Gore.
If news outlets declare him the winner. Big IF.
https://www.nationalreview.com/news/biden-to-address-nation-as-president-elect-if-news-outlets-call-race-for-him/
I think he scheduled it last week thinking he was the clear winner. But the headline on him talking has changed over the day. Now reads he may not talk tonight because….. (well we know why)
clipped from Bloomberg
“Biden May Not Speak Tonight If Outcome Unclear (4:59 p.m.)
Biden said he might not address supporters Tuesday night if the outcome of the vote remains unclear.
“If there’s something to talk about tonight I’ll talk about it,” Biden said Tuesday at a campaign stop in Wilmington, Delaware. “If not, I’ll wait till the votes are counted the next day.”
Biden spent much of Election Day campaigning in Pennsylvania, a critical battleground that could hold the key to a close election and where there are questions about how long it will take to process an unprecedented flood of mail-in ballots. — Jennifer Epstein”
To say he is retiring from public life and moving out of the country, oddly to a country that has no extradition agreement with the United States.
Concession speech.
Concession speech (hopefully)
I WILL NOT watch JOE BIDEN.
He can talk all he wants.
He should get NO watchers, let the media who show him have very LOW viewing.
Town of Verona, Wisconsin. At about 130pm, approx 1200 out or 1600 registered voters voted, includes absentee and early. Huge turnout
TRUMP Territory I would hope and assume?
That’s great as long as those voting aren’t influenced by nearby Mad-Town.
a) Ignore the exit polls
b) stay in line, if you’re in the line they have to let you vote
c) we got this
With 100Mil mail in and early voting already on the books… Exit polls are not what they used to be.
Yes, they went from “effectively useless” to “why waste your money and time.”
I was at the polling place at 5:20 AM in Ellisville, MO and was about the 40th in line. Line was beginning to form behind me and by 6 AM was around the library! The deplorables were starting to arrive. When I left it was still around the building. I feel very good about what’s happening and when “real America” gets off work and goes to vote, result? Tsunami!!!
Reporting from Killer Cuomo’s Covid Compliant Gulag of NY, about 50 miles north of NYC: Finally got in to the polling place on my third try. The road going to the building was backed up for half a mile in both directions, parking lot was a madhouse. It’s been like this all day. I waited on line for an hour to get into the building which is a very large ambulance corps HQ.
I have never seen this kind of turnout for any election in my town’s history. Heartened to see that at least 25% were NOT wearing muzzles! Judging by the conversations I overheard, I think at least this part of town is going solid for President Trump.
marie-that’s a good sign. The Demonics are too scared to come out and vote.
Last week when I was down in Manhattan, there were gloomy looking lines of voters. Did not look like Trump supporters.
It’s a shame it’s not pouring down rain or heavy snow across the country. Would certainly cut down on the dem turnout as they wouldn’t be bothered to go out in bad weather to vote. Especially for Joe. 🙂
He thinks he will be speaking as the new president.
Or, as he said…a new Senator. LOL
Tweaking that old Woody Allen joke – Maybe Biden will say:
” I went to a psychiatrist’s office and said, hey doc, Hunter’s crazy! He thinks he’s a chicken. Then the doc says, why don’t you turn him in? So I said, , C’mon Man but I need the eggs – you Lyin Dog Faced Pony Soldier”
And the obligatory sound track.
My guess is long lines are not composed of democrats voting for a guy who won’t serve out a term.
Serve out a term? He wouldn’t last four months much less four years.
Max two years.
Max one day. I think he will turn it over to Kamala immediately.
I’m thinking he probably won’t last until the Inaugural Ball.
Well, he’d certainly leave The Ball early. Call it a night around 8:30.
They must be getting nervous. Latest troll talking point was “Republican turnout was anemic and it’s a landslide for Biden”. Claimed “internal polls” were showing it.
Too bad the COMPLETE opposite is true. Also, we already saw the internal polls released yesterday by Trumps’ Campaign Manager showing Biden getting crushed lol
That worthless and pathetic POS Doug Shoen was squaking these exact talking points, and an electoral landslide for ‘ole Creepy Pops.
I posted on the 10:00 thread from Frederick MD. Out of curiosity, awhile ago I drove back to my polling place to check out the line. Line length the same as this morning, Long. Unfortunately, I haven’t lived in Frederick long enough to know whether this bodes well for Red or Blue.
Frederick went for Trump in 2016. 59% or so. Good news for Trump.
Frederick is big bedroom county for the DC Swamp, direct access via I-270.
Could go either way.
Preface:
I rarely post before reading, but since it’s a ground report and duty calls my attention and my fingers elsewhere, I’ll beg the house’s pardon in this case and commit a drive-by post.
This state is the nation’s first to pass an absentee-only voter law, and needless to say, it is not a method to be recommended. Please remain mindful it is presently being boasted and peddled as the national model, and the waiting list of states and the dollar signs are deep for the cabal presently in control of the state and busy selling their snake oil. Don’t let them slither into your state undetected.
Northwest Washington
We dropped our ballots at the county courthouse on Friday and by Monday they were counted.
As of Friday evening this county turnout was almost 78%, with several other counties reporting turnouts greater than 85% at that time.
The number of Trump signs and displays of support dwarf those seen for his opponent.
Signs and displays for our Republican gubernatorial candidate, Loren Culp are everywhere, while there is no visible display of support for the incumbent candidate, who President Trump has in the past accurately described as a snake.
I have prepared a traditional American Thanksgiving meal to serve this evening as we prayerfully welcome the conclusion of this phenomenal election.
I thank, love, cherish and adore Donald Trump for so bravely and faithfully leaping into the breach.
In my view no other President besides General Washington has given as deeply or achieved so much for their country and for the world.
The realization that God has equipped and sustained Donald Trump to confront and withstand what he has, and that we have been given front row seats to witness these historic events as they unfold leaves me prostrate in humility.
God bless America.
Attached is a link to what is at present my favorite picture. It’s unclear whether she’s aiming for Cuba or Ukraine, and I can’t say I have a preference.

Will go out on a limb and predict that President Trump will fare a lot better in Texas than he did in 2016 when he won by only 4pts. (In 2012 Romney took the state by 9.) The problem in 2016 was a lot of the oldskool GOP state establishment was butthurt about LowEnergy Jeb & Lyin’ Ted getting the boot during the primaries. That is all gone and forgotten now; water under the bridge. So, Biden/Harris should lose Texas by 10pts, 45 – 55.
North San Diego county here. I went to polls later hoping to miss any lines. It worked, no lines!! Poll workers were nice, I wouldn’t(can’t) wear a mask so they brought ballot to me outside. A number of people dropped off mail-in ballots while I waited. They were placed in a large yellow bag carried by the poll worker. One confusing thing, upon arrival I was asked to fill out and sign a “ballot application”. When I questioned this, they said that this was used to look me up in the “system”. They used to use a roster organized by your address which you signed before getting your ballot. I asked why can’t I just give you my name to look me up, or heaven forbid ask for an ID. Precinct boss lady brought out the Ipad/ laptop like device used to enter me in the system, then provided me the ballot. I filled out a paper ballot then placed it in a ballot box brought out by the precinct boss lady. I voted but do not trust the state.
Hi all. I will be a poll watcher at David Cox Elementary School in Henderson Nevada in the 89074 starting at 4:30 PM. Say hello. I’m dressed like Jake from State Farm. (Red shirt and Khakis)
Thank you, donnyvee!
Status Update: Just voted for Trump and I’m still black.
??
?
And you are a patriotic American who loves your country! Thank you!!
Good for you! Thank you. ?
LOL!!!!!
omg.. wait.. that means Joe was lying..?
Hah, thread winner! 🙂
Ha !
If you know any Florida voters, please make sure they either voted, or will vote and will not leave the line! Left is really selling that Biden is winning Florida right when people are leaving work to vote.
Kinda hard to sell him winning Florida when Trump’s up by ~200,000 lol (not including the panhandle)
You would think!
And I bet a LOT of Dems are crossing over for PTrump which is not reflected in the 200,000 or so!
Update Nassau county Florida precinct 204. My son just voted there, said no line walked right in. News4jax is there, reporter told my son there had not been any line all day. I have no idea how many voted early here, my husband and I did and early voting was pretty brisk, but Nassau county and precinct 204 is HEAVY Trump territory
Voted at ~16 00 in a small northern minnesota shithole township. Approx 600 registered voters, I was #349, evening rush and mail in ballots not accounted for in that number.
Columbus Ohio,Franklin Country.suburban up scale neighborhood..that over the years leaning left (my Dad is spinning in his grave) because IMHO the OSU lib professors .big tech town also..normally I never have to wait in line..but I typically go in mid afternoon..today I went at 2 PM I was number 1062 and the line was steady,lots of poll workers,,masks requested, I did not..no one said a thing.everyone seemed happy and upbeat..it went smoothly and I was out the door at 2:25

Beautiful Dame in that picture ?
VA here. State isn’t optimistic for Trump but hope we can steal a house seat or 2.
Not what Ive been seeing and reading all day.
Pie in the sky dreamers. Only way we flip is if black vote. Hope it goes Trump’s way but just don’t see how.
Respectfully,
“The Pharohs army has us backed up against the Red Sea! I don’t see HOW we can survive!”
With GOD, ALL things are possible.
Go against God, NOTHING is.
They took God out of the pledge.
Think he didn’t NOTICE?
OR, that PDJT regularly praises him?
1200 voters in our district. There were over 600 ballots returned before today. I was 422 with 2 others still voting. I would expect several more after people get off work, but there aren’t many left who haven’t voted. We are at >85% Illinois suburb of St. Louis. If not having my vote do much for our IL electoral vote, I hope we make some gains in local politics and hopefully the amendment to allow changes to the flat tax rate fail. The market for radiologists has been good lately, if my taxes go up by 3% I may be looking for a new state. I hope those in the rest of the state realize that I won’t be alone.
I have been driving voters to the polls here in Northern Virginia since I voted at 0710 this morning. Just took my last 3 Trump voters to the polls and it has been DEAD all day. This is Deep State lib country where Biden signs outnumber the Trump signs 10-1. My neighbors are having Biden victory parties right now. We may not win Virginia, but EVERY person I saw driving people to the polls was a Trump voter. Polls close in 38 minutes and the parking lot is empty.
I’m in Prescott, AZ near town center at the moment and the place is swarming with Trump flags, car/truck supporters and big smiles!
545 pm vassar mi in the thumb
Cars are parked in frount.of.my house 1/2 mile from the polling place 100s in line to vote. Same scene at a basic crossroad of a town Richville 6 moles away a.gas station a small grocery, two churches and 100s in line to vote ?️
Didn’t know Biden hires Baghdad bob for PR. This is laughable.
Yes, Florida, which the R’s currently lead by over 200,000 votes (not including the Panhandle) is somehow a “tossup” lol. Then there’s the reports that most blue city polling stations are like ghost towns, but yeah, he’s definitely “overperforming” smdh
How are y’all feeling about Senate races?
Affluent red county in red Alabama. I have never seen so many people. Lots of American flags on tshirts, masks, and hats. Trump signs lining the street-no Biden. Took 3 hours to vote. I saw only one person leave the line. Voting process is nice and tight here, so no shenanigans. What an incredible turnout-bye bye Doug Jones!
Blink and you miss us small town central Illinois. Like most of the state we are red. Chicago and the dead people vote pull us blue. We just voted at our little polling station 5pm and there was a steady flow of people. The poll workers said it was a very good turn out. The woman by the ballot collecting machine wouldn’t tell me who is winning and she should know because she was standing right over it looking at every ballot as we fed them in. Anyway I can confirm at least 2 votes for Trump here. Like I said we are typically red and we had a large turn out (for our small area).
Drove up 55 from St. Louis last week…plenty of Trump support downstate…in Chicago area…not so much.
I am sitting here staring at my computer screen waiting for a red wave to appear! On pins and needles, but everything I am reading seems very encouraging!
That’s good to know. Starting to feel like a zombie!
Gateway Pundit has a story running, with regular updates showing Trump’s lead in Florida up over 200,000.
But somehow Biden’s Campaign thinks it’s a “tossup” lol
Once that fine woman Brenda Snipes in Broward County finds 210,000 votes in the trunk of an old Covair, or two, it will be a tossup.
Oh, yeah Brenda Snipes is retired and is now out snipe hunting. No more magic ballots being found everywhere.
Woohooo!
Voted at 4:00 PM Dallas,TX time in M Streets Precinct. It’s now leans left with high income earners. Took 10 minutes to vote as all the Dems voted early.
TX will go for Trump because of the 200+ rural counties which are on the Trump train.
Not a ground report that reflects current voting but reflects support for current voting … Gentleman driving pickup around town with large trump 2020 flag …. in rural Alberta Canada. Was able to wave but unable to get a picture.

Commerce Twp, MI 6:00PM update:
We voted this morning, but for kicks, I just took a drive by our polling place, I did not see a line, but didn’t expect one either, however, I did see about the same amount of cars in the lot, so I say there are probably 20-30 folks casting votes right now!
Red Wave~~~~
COLORADO
Almost 2 million independents — ya think that will overcome a 108,000 advantage so far???
Democrats Voted 930,805 Registered 1,215,517
Republicans Voted 822,481 Registered 1,110,614
No Party Affiliation Voted 1,092,937 Registered 1,709,243
Praying . Why does Florida seem like the only news … where are ground reports on Arizona , Michigan , Nevada ?? Anything on Georgia and Texas ?
Hope so. Have 4 relatives there in the Denver area; 3 of whom are oldskool libs sitting this one out. The 4th, the youngest, already voted for Donald Trump!
TEXAS ? . . . The polls don’t close for another hour here.
TRUMP will take the state handily, by 5-10 pts. Wait and see.
We escorted the Biden/Harris Bozo Bus out a couple of days ago.
~~~~ TRUMP the VOTE ~~~~
I wish she was in MY neighborhood.
Not much action at my local polling place here in Berserkeley CA. Early/absentee/mail-in very high here. Along with gazillion propositions we have a mayoral election. The incumbent and his two challengers are all horrid and exemplifies just how lost this city famed for a world-class university and left-wing activism is. We have ranked-choice voting and I couldn’t vote for any of them.
In my little town in Maine, we showed up after 2pm. The room was empty mostly, everyone was homey and cordial. An officer was seated and we had a nice chat. I brought my 3 eighteen year old first time voters, President Trump supporters and they registered and voted on the spot. We wore masks as requested. I cast a vote for every republican and 1 independent sheriff. My daughter who usually supports democrats wasn’t on the list and didn’t bring adequate ID, so couldn’t vote to my chagrin. Although, she has watched every speech by Our President this year and I believe her fiance is a Trump supporter. She went to get papers and return to vote and I think this year even she will vote for President Trump.
City of Cleveland OH turnout is down more than 10% There is something going on w dem enthusiasm.
Don’t need to show up if
a. you mailed it in, or,
b. ballot harvesters already got your ballot…..or
c. you sold your mail-in ballot for cash….or
d. you aren’t voting
