Polls are now open in all of the 48 lower states and in the District of Columbia. Only Hawaii and Alaska are yet to open.
I justed voted in Marlton, New Jersey. No line at all in the polling place although business was brisk. I missed the early morning rush, but this typifies the disparity between upper-middle class neighborhoods and poorer neighborhoods in terms of voting resources. While it is great that I was able to vote in 5 minutes, it is a shame that others, especially those least able to get time off from work, are not afforded the same opportunity.
One new poll of note -- a Zogby poll just released shows Obama up by 11% in Nevada. It is odd to see movement when 60 to 70% of the state has already voted, so this may be an outlier, but it certainly confirms that Obama is a heavy favorite to win there.
