Today Missouri, Florida, Ohio, North Carolina, and Illinois vote.

Here in Missouri, I voted 8 hours after the polling place opened and I was the first to choose the Libertarian ballot. Gary Johnson was not on there for some reason. I got a sample ballot before I went to vote so I could research the candidates.

Voted Cecil Ince. Yeah that's right. Who? Here is where he stands on the issues. I was leaning toward Gary Johnson but since he wasn't on the Missouri ballot, I had to look into other candidates. There were other Libertarian candidates on the ballot and I looked each of them up but it came down to either Cecil Ince or Uncommited for me.

As for the polling place, there was one person ahead of me. One came in after me. Not crowded at all. No electioneers either which is a good thing to me.

Early Voter Turnout Shatters Primary Election Records in Chicago



As of 3:45 p.m. Sunday, 129,957 early votes had been cast in Chicago, according to James Allen of the Chicago Board of Elections, shattering records for a primary election in the city.

The previous record was set during the 2008 primary election when 81,690 early ballots were cast. In that election, President Barack Obama and Arizona Senator John McCain won the state's Democratic and Republican primaries, respectively.




This year, Democrats have accounted for 90 percent of early voting in Chicago, with Republicans accounting for 10 percent. In 2008, voter turnout was 93 percent Democrat and 6 percent Republican. In 2012, Democrats accounted for 81 percent of early votes, while Republicans accounted for 18 percent.


I think Sanders won Chicago.

Central Illinois (Peoria) here, went out and cast my vote today!

The polling place wasn't too busy, but it's still the middle of the day here. I'd say there were about 20 people altogether at this Lutheran church. Voting machines were nice and simple, everyone was really nice and polite. I had registered a long time beforehand, so I was in and out of there in like 15 minutes.

Bernie all the way!!! I have a friend in Puerto Rico who begged me to make sure I got out there and voted. Anything but Trump. I told her they wouldn't even let him SPEAK in Chicago, so there is nothing to worry about as far as Illinois is concerned.

It's awesome to hear about the voter turnout. I realize that no matter who gets elected, that person alone won't be able to "fix" this country... but my vote went to the candidate I believe will cause the least damage to it.

Get out there and vote!

Looks like Kasich will win Ohio big - exit polls show massive late breaking vote going to him and he was already ahead.

I reckon

Florida - Rubio
Missouri - Cruz
Ohio - Kasich
North Carolina - Trump
Illinois - Cruz

I have a good friend who is a Cuban defector, been here for over 30 years - and is also a "Go Bernie" guy! His wife is a first-gen Mexican-American, a senior ICU nurse.

She ALSO supports Bernie!

GO BERNIE!!!!!!!

Florida looks done. Trump, but he will still need 173 delegates from the other four states to stay on track for 1273.

Wondering at what point the GOP and the MSM at large will start respecting the citizens of this country who are speaking with their vote.

The GOP and MSM looking at every which way to cut down Trump with their 24/7 anti-Trump brigade is about as anti-democratic as they can get.

This country is for and of the people. We vote! We pick who represents us! Stop going behind America's back with your communist tactics!

Florida Fumble-Flops:

Rubio
Cruz
Kasich

All of the above getting their rear ends handed to them.



Millions of campaign dollars down the drain.

North Carolina starting to report....
Clinton way ahead, Trump early lead.

Rubio is being slauthered in Florida.

We can expect a concession speech in the next few days methinks. I guess Cruz was right, it will be a two man show come the weekend.

She's leading in Ohio 71-29% but only with 1% if the vote in

I'm expecting Sanders to take Ohio, Illiniois and Missiouri and if Clinton sweeps tonight then the Sanders campaign needs to start writing that concession speech
