"SNIP..........
The election between Democrat Conor Lamb and Republican Rick Saccone got underway at 7 Tuesday morning, and anecdotal word from pollworkers was that turnout was high for a special election.
At Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, a polling place in Pleasant Hills, turnout was approaching 25 percent by about 12:30 p.m.,
At the Castle Shannon Public Library, there were lines of voters when the doors opened at 7 a.m. A longtime volunteer said that during the presidential election, it took until noon to reach 30 voters. They reached that number by 8:15 Tuesday.

Overall this morning, a higher than normal number of voters had cast ballots at the church.
