I voted on my way home this evening, after work and after the gym.
I have noticed two very odd things about this election.
On Saturday, I received two recorded political message phone calls, so I turned off my answering machine, because I didn't want to be inundated with recorded political messages until the polls closed. Well, since I turned off the machine, I have received only one probable political phone call. I can tell this because even though the answering machine is turned off, the caller ID unit still captures incoming phone numbers. This strikes me as very odd.
The other odd thing is that there were no party workers outside my polling place. Every election, even primaries, there are always party workers outside my polling place. Not today.

I voted at 5:00pm--took less than 15 minutes. Two years ago? It took 2 HOURS.
MY polling place (47th Street across from the UN) was so quiet.
What is UP with people--is it apathy, or what?
???
I lost my absentee ballot so voted a provisional ballot. My polling place was hoppin'-I've never seen so many people in my joint.
The newspaper wanted to take a picture of my fat ass voting and I had to politely decline.
