I just voted....walked in and Chris Jansing from m$nbc was there, then i realized....

...last time I voted Phil Bredesen was standing in line right in front of me...we vote at the same polling place.

Then I saw about 20 media cameras pointed at the folks voting....then Bredesen walked in and voted.

I said hello Senator Bredesen & he smiled. Hope I'm right!

12. Good Story - Just Voted In Omaha

I was dumbfounded by how long the line was. It is in an area with a mix of young and old. Nearly all young people. Gives me hope that Kara Eastman upsets incumbent Don Bacon - making him toast. I believe the lines were longer than 2008.

I'm also in Omaha (I voted by mail a couple weeks ago).
Eastman all the way! Make Nebraska smart again!

I was in line at the Omaha Educational Admin building @ 30th and Cumming. The line was out the door this morning at 8:30. and I didn't make it in to vote until 9:00 - 9:15 or so.

I was #157.
I wore my Vote —Removes Orange Stains and the old ladies working giggled when they understood it.
Other old lady voting seemed like her first time and was loud. For unopposed races here the guys are all Reps. She was complaining “why can’t I find a Democrat on some of these. The only ones I see are Republicans!!”
