If I were Barack Obama, I would look down at that ballot, see my name printed on it, think of the long road I had traveled to reach this point, and then take 15 minutes to let it all sink in.

And then, just as I was about to fill in the little dot next to my name on my ballot, I'd put my black pen back down again and say to myself: "You know what? I'm gonna take another 15 minutes. Fuck you Matt Drudge!"

No doubt it took so long since they had several ballots to fill out. That is the Chicago way!

Are those ballot papers or a la carte menus for fuck sake? No wonder things get so screwed up so easily over there. I mean, democracy yay! etc. but keep it simple, no?

Over here we get like an A6 postcard with half-a-dozen names on, "X" marks the spot, then off you pop. Five mins max baby, no queues either.

I feel like such a jerk but I cut the longest line in voting history by accident! I wanted to get my info and they basically ushered me into a booth.

There was so much confusion as to where people should go for their district it seemed to put things at a stand still.

Obama votes like he does everything else, with thought, care, and methodology. I suspect Drudge will go in pick the first M and P he sees and wind up voting for a flat rate for manicures and pedicures across the country.

I voted in Chicago. We had like 15 screens of judges to vote on when using the machines. It took me 15 minutes to vote and I skipped over all of them. He was probably actually voting.

I wish voting was like giving blood, where they give you a cookie afterwards.

I would have liked a cookie. I was hungry from standing in line, ha.

@Meg: Not to be, uh, bitter or anything, but we live in what is still considered a poor district, all gentrification aside. So, no cookies or stickers or anything for us.

I think they were mostly concerned with making sure everyone knew where to go and what to do -- there's a lot of ESL voters in my 'hood.

Drudge has long loved the a href = "#" blank anchor tag. It's his special e-web-1995-superhighway way of blasting a headline with no story to back it up.

Yeah the BBC was reporting this, too - lots of down-ticket items in Chicago, apparently.

Also, anyone else in NY confused about this initiative about veterans and the civil service exam? What was the deal with that?
