Arrived to vote at 5:00 and the line is wrapped around an entire church, 5 or 6 hundred people and I hear it's been this way all day. Hope I get in by 7:00.

That is good. I voted early with no line. First time in ten years. It felt great.

The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

Why would Arizona vote for Trump as the anti establishment candidate when y'all keep electing John McCain? Wouldn't Kasich be a better choice for y'all?

Voted at 7:29. The line was allowed to vote if you got there by 7:00... at 7 the line was longer than when I got there, they will be voting till 10:00.

Clintons are from the south so I guess that's what ya'll be voting... Funny thing was McCain had girls walking around trying to get signatures and no one would sign... I loved it. Also guys were trying to give away McCain bumper stickers in the parking lot and not getting any takers either. Kent

Krp: I began using the absentee voter system decades ago.
No lines.
Plenty of time to figure things out.
No missing "the vote" due to unforeseen emergencies, illnesses, etc etc etc.
I recommend it.
Look into it.

Well, I've never voted in a presidential primary, az used to have a late primary and the GOP candidate was pretty much chosen by that time. State primaries are fairly vacant.
The general nov elections have over 3 times the polling places and are walk in and walk out.
There was a lot of resolve from folks waiting patiently for hours to vote. I surprised myself I didn't walk away, as 1 vote didn't mean much... but somehow it did to me... and everyone else's did for them.

Kent i heard on the boob tube they reduced the number of polling places from over 200 something to about 60, which caused the jamup. Somebody probably ought to get fired over that. But trump and the witch on the dnc side won it handily, about two for one. Surprising the number of votes the little goofball bernie got tho.

Yep, there were 60 polling places in Maricopa county and just 4 in Mesa. People were talking about how normally few show up to vote primaries. Everyone was astonished by the line. I only saw 1 person get out of line and leave after waiting a bit.
Folks are serious this election.

Problem with Senators and Congressmen is the GOP pretty much dictates choices for voters, good old boy's club. Challengers are overwhelmed with money and advertising.
Governors and other elected state/local officials tell a better story of a state's leanings.
God I hope McCain gets kicked out and this year's disenfranchisement of establishment politicians may see that come to pass... please...

Why would Arizona vote forJohn McCain? Because, the other option would put another Dem in the Senate.
