Election Day 2008
I don’t have a whole lot of time today to devote to the blog, but I wanted to pose a few questions and observations about today.
First off, for journalists, Election Day is better than Christmas Day. It’s 24 hours and beyond of coverage, things happening and then a huge payoff at the end. Although the first Tuesday in November is typically the busiest day of the year, it’s also the most rewarding. Folks, this is what journalists study, go to school, train and live for.
And I can assure you, the staff and all of the Cox Ohio Publishing papers feel the same, and are ready to put in the time and effort to do the best job we can of covering this historic election.
But, I want to know about your voting experience today. Do you feel as jazzed as I do? Did you have to wait? If so, how long? If not, why not?
Traversing Butler County this morning, I encountered several locations where voters showed up well before 6 a.m., and by the time the polls opened, lines were several dozen to a few hundred people deep.
By 8:30 a.m., the lines had mostly dissipated. As of 10:35 a.m., today, there were no problems reported.
Thoughts?
