Election Day, II

Voting extended by one hour, until 5pm, in oder to allow more people to cast their ballots. Turnout has apparently been light, particularly in the south.

Update: Mrs G at the Mudville Gazette has a "master list" of election day reports from the front as well as news media outlets.
