In partnership with AOL News, we have a handy way to track the votes in every state. The interactive map below will tell you what states have polls open, when they close, and will track the calls made by the AP on whether each state goes to Barack Obama or John McCain. Click on each state to see a county-by-county breakdown of the voting, as well as more detailed information on state totals.
I’ll be checking this throughout the day, and it’s just one of many reasons to make Hot Air your primary Election Day website!

Just voted in Johnson County- pretty short line, actually. We’re very red here, and will no doubt go Mccain, but it was funny to pick out the Obama voters in line. They were the angry, defiant ones with the scowl on their faces at being surrounded by people who had actual jobs to go to after voting!
anniekc on November 4, 2008 at 9:11 AM
Took a very pleasant (despite the overcast sky) walk to my polling place as soon as it opened (6 AM) to cast my vote for McCain/Palin. I definitely couldn’t let living in solid Blue NY keep me down. This is my first time being eligible to vote for Prez and it was an exciting thing to do.
*Fingers crossed!*

My wife will be voting in her first Presidential Election (naturalized in 2004 one week after last one). She is from Canada so it took a while to explain conservatism American style. She was liberal when we met but it was due to the fact she was uninformed. She is so excited that we are in CO and her vote could swing things.
VOTE
thomasaur on November 4, 2008 at 9:12 AM
Good for you. There’s not a more patriotic feeling than casting that vote. I voted McCain/Palin in early voting last week.
Go Mac Go!
txsurveyor on November 4, 2008 at 9:14 AM
CookeyD – Great job keeping him there to vote. I had an argument with my boyfriend yesterday. He’s a very conservative guy and will got McCain, but he thinks this is all a lot less important than I believe it is. He’s has skipped voting before just because the line was long and he’d had a rough day at work. This time, if he hasn’t voted by the time I’m off work, I’m dragging him to the polls and waiting there with him.
JadeNYU on November 4, 2008 at 9:14 AM
I just voted and I did have to wait 45 minutes, but when I was leaving the line was short. Shoot next time I will just go at 8 instead.
sammypants on November 4, 2008 at 9:16 AM
That’s the spirit CSM! Feels good to be an American, doesn’t it?!
IrishEi on November 4, 2008 at 9:16 AM
I voted in Wake County (Raleigh area) of NC at 8:00, 245 people voted before me and I walked right up got my ballot and voted with NO waiting. People were waiting in line for hours to vote early. Paper ballots and scanning machines rule for fast voting.
Let’s hope Karl, the evil genius, Rove is wrong on his prediction. Florida you need to pull your weight for the Red Team.
Sparky on November 4, 2008 at 9:16 AM
Just voted for McCain. It’s a madhouse. Being in a heavy state for McCain, you could tell who the Obama supports were… wide-eyed and paranoid.
donny on November 4, 2008 at 9:16 AM
Ugh. ‘will got McCain” should be ‘will vote McCain’.
I didn’t sleep much last night…

This will be my 19 year old daughter’s first vote. Strong pro life, strong second amendment (pretty good shot). What Jim Gaffigan would call a shiite Catholic. I have not asked her who she will vote for but I’m confident she will do the “right” thing.
SKYFOX on November 4, 2008 at 9:18 AM
Dragging the wifey-to-be out to vote for her very first time today in the People’s Republic of Toledo.
Also picked up plenty of 12 ga. 00 buck shells and rifled slugs, along with a couple bricks of .45 hollow points and CCI .22.
Go Mac/Palin!
TeamDub on November 4, 2008 at 9:20 AM
I work at home so I ususally go vote around 10:30am when nobody else is there – in and out.
My friend wanted me to wait with her this morning before she went to work so I went along. We got there at 6:30am and the parking lot was full and cars parked on the sides of the street. I got in line and hit my stop watch, 1 hour and 46 minutes later I cast my vote for Sarah Palin and Saxby Chambliss.
We are hoping to knock of Dem Representative David Scott and keep Saxby (crappy as his is) in the Senate.
Amazing turnout here in my little corner of Cobb County Georgia.
Elizabetty on November 4, 2008 at 9:20 AM
We voted MCCAIN/PALIN early last Tuesday with only a 20 minute waiting line. BTW, I am against computer ballots. The only reliable ballot is a paper ballot with fill-in ovals resembling test forms that we ALL have experienced using during grade school. Older (conservative) senior citizens will not “like” being forced to vote on a computer screen with blaring neon lights flashing distractions. It’s awful, the tax expenditures to provide a computer per voter removing all partitions with no privacy now, AND REQUIRING A VOLUNTEER PER VOTER TO KEY IN EACH VOTER PRIOR TO BALLOT.
LOL
But I have wondered exactly when were the two parties assigned gang colors, and who made the assignment. No doubt, the press. Probably after WWII. Which political historian knows this trivia answer?
Red is a power color. Sports teams wearing red uniforms have a statistical win advantage over teams without red colors, or so a study reported. But since the Communists pre-empted “red”, the probable reason the neo-liberal press would assign it to their own opposition, the GOP American Heritage.
Blue as in “true blue” and “blue collar” would be propaganda enough for the press to use blue to rally the working class. Blue is the color that triggers wasps and beas to attack. And don’t ignore “blue blood” progressive neo-liberal elitists who now own the DNC as they preempt the liberties from our Constitutional government and lives with Marxist authoritarianism.

My wife and I both voted — Waited about an hour here in NW Ohio.
dengar007 on November 4, 2008 at 9:20 AM
Hello from the Hoosier State (Indiana). I voted @ 7:40am this morning. Had to wait about 15-20 minutes in line. I was the 100th voter. If you could see my county and my little township, you’d realize that’s a pretty big deal!
I double checked my vote as I’m slightly OCD about things and am very proud to have voted for McCain-Palin!!!
Oink on November 4, 2008 at 9:22 AM
My wife and I both voted, Collin County Texas. Polling was about normal, from the past two presidential elections. Should be safely RED.
GOTV
jstueve on November 4, 2008 at 9:22 AM
I turned in my ballot yesterday here in Oregon. I’m sure my vote and the vote of my very conservative co-worker and his wife will turn blue state Oregon red. Yesterday, I saw two McCain stickers in the back window of someone’s car. I have not seen any Osama Obama stickers in a while.

And now even the Vets turn away out of fear.
Stop being afraid of what the polls say. If you don’t like them, ignore them. Pundits, unfortunately, have to take them into account.
MadisonConservative on November 4, 2008 at 9:27 AM
Has MSNBC called it for Obama yet?
Maxx on November 4, 2008 at 9:28 AM
VOTED-McCain-Palin after a 40 minute wait. Worth every minute. The Obama voters were stoic, quiet and straight-faced. I think they know what’s coming tonite and it’s not going to be “The Messiah”.
It is going to be an awakening for them, the world, the MSM and a fresh breath of air for conservatives who still believe that America IS the land of the Free and the home of the Brave and that AMERICANS own this country.

maverick muse – When Gerald Ford won, he yelled “Go blue!” because he was watching NBC and they had Dems as red and Reps as blue. The networks used to assign whichever color they chose to each party and it would be different from network to network.
Although there was starting to be a red=rep/blue=den consensus in the 90s, it was solidified in people’s minds in 2000 when we all spent weeks staring at red and blue maps tryingvto figure out how our guy could win.
JadeNYU on November 4, 2008 at 9:31 AM
The tide of change has come and with it comes a man that will make all of us proud again to be Americans.
That man is John McCain.

Good morning all.
Just voted here in Richmond, VA. It’s raining.
My polling place was busy but not overwhelmed. My guess is that most of the voters in my precinct tend to vote in high percentages anyway, and that there were not many “new recruits” to get to the polls. Took about half an hour with about 40 people ahead of me in the A-K line. Virtually no line on the L-Z side. Someone I talked to said the reverse was true when the polls opened at 6:00.
My boss and one co-worker in different precincts reported over an hour to vote, with high black voter turnout.
Used my concealed handgun permit as ID. The woman checking voter lists did not know if it was ok and asked for a DL. I asked if the CHP was not ok? It is a government issued ID. She asked another worker who glanced at it and said “Government ID, no problem”.
Will try to get some work done today, but it will be difficult.
God bless America!

thomasaur on November 4, 2008 at 9:38 AM
Voted early this morning in east-central Ohio. It was crowded, but things moved along nicely… ended up waiting about 20 minutes. (Nothing compared to the 3 hours that folks are waiting in Columbus).
McCain has that part of the state, no problem. It’s the other areas I’m worried about…

RushBaby on November 4, 2008 at 9:48 AM
Beautiful weather here in Missouri. It took me an hour to vote…biggest crowds I’ve ever seen. The poll workers were well organized and we use paper scanning ballots, so I didn’t have to wait for a machine. Everyone was quite polite, and it felt good to finally get to vote for Sarah and that old guy she hangs out with.
:)
Abelard on November 4, 2008 at 9:48 AM
You win the “Vote of the Day” award, my friend.
MadisonConservative on November 4, 2008 at 9:50 AM
Me too! Polling place was pretty busy at 7:10, but I opted for the paper ballot and was in and out in 15 minutes…grinning at the sheeple standing in line to use the touchscreen.
MattB on November 4, 2008 at 9:50 AM
All went well here in NC. Quick in and out for me. Go Palin/whatshisname!
Dawnsblood on November 4, 2008 at 9:51 AM
Just voted in NM. Even though it looks hopeless here I did what I can. You should all do your part too no matter what the polls say.
Loki on November 4, 2008 at 9:58 AM
I wore my Palin purple to the polls this morning in central Ohio. No wait at all (a lot of people have voted early here). I was nervous up until the time I voted. Now I feel at peace.
Let’s roll.
JenWestin on November 4, 2008 at 9:59 AM
I just got home from taking the kids to school, and voting.
Not a long line, but I live in a small county in southeast Texas. My hope is…that Republicans don’t just assume that since we’re red state, that their vote isn’t needed. I know a lot of democrats are popping up around here.
I voted party line, all the way, when I could. On a few there was no choice, but a democrat. I left that blank. LOL
Now my day will be spent popping rolaids, and in prayer LOL
Go McCain/Palin!!!!

Just back from voting, Spotslyvania County, Virginia. In and out in ten minutes. Short lines moving quickly, steady flow of cars coming and going. About normal for my precinct.

I just got back from voting here in Manassas, VA. Very quick, maybe 10 minutes. I stopped on the way in to grab a Republican sample ballot to basically tell people who I’m voting for. On the way out, I talked to the guy working and he said there are about 6-7 Obama operatives there and they look strangely nervous. I noticed it too. The two I saw were sitting on the curb, both on cell phones and flipping through registers of some kind, no smiles. It did not look like a confident Obama operation.

Just voted in Oklahoma. Reddest of the red. Unfortunately, we’re so red, no candidate ever comes to see us.
Something new this year, though, on the registrars table was a little sign…photo ID required, and a list of admissible ID’s. No hoopla, no news “SPECIAL REPORT”, nobody hollering about being ‘disenfranchised’. I love Oklahoma.
It was kinda strange, though, having to show my card to my third grade teacher. The other lady at the table used to hire me to babysit her kids when I was a teenager. I’m 54, now.
needless to say, I have lived in this small town since Moses was a boy. I went to High School in the same building as my father, and both my sons went after me.
There was also a state question, allowing disabled veterans to be free from state property taxes. I was surprised that wasn’t already being done. That will sail through.
I have the day off (recovering from surgery) so I’ll be with Hot Air all day. Yippee!
Go Mac and Sarah!

Not a political historian, but from what I remember, they used to alternate between the colors each election. However, during the 2000 election, Red-State and Blue-State became so linked with their parties that they left it that way in the later elections. If I am wrong about this, please correct me!
MikeTheLibrarian on November 4, 2008 at 10:45 AM
Hmm. I went to vote early, about 7:10 or so. I’m in rural Utah–it doesn’t come much more red than this county. The local Dems usually don’t even bother running a candidate.
I waited over twenty minutes. In a rural precinct. With over 644 votes cast early. At 7 in the morning. I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if we have around 90 percent turnout. And if that’s the case in rural utah, the most red state in the nation, then I can’t imagine what the rest of the conservative turnout where your vote actually counts is like.
You want to know how conservative we are? We voted in an armory! Just imagine Murtha having to cast his ballot inside a military installation! And no one has even brought it up. Our Dems are far to the right of Leiberman here. It’s rather nice, really. I pity the rest of you, stuck where you have lots of Obamatrons.
Vanceone on November 4, 2008 at 10:47 AM
No line @ my voting station walked up and voted! Took my Gram one mile away and the line is hours long. Called for backup and have my Mom taking the first shift w/my Gram (who is blind & 88-yrs-old) and I’ll be back to see her thru the rest.

Moaneeca on November 4, 2008 at 10:51 AM
I voted at approximatly 7:10 this morning where I live just north of Boston and it was doing a pretty brisk business. Traffic was a bit more heavy on my way out just a few minutes later. I did however witness one curious incident. While giving my name and address to one of the nice little old(er) ladies working the table for my precinct, a married couple around my age (early 40’s) from the same street gave theirs and was informed that they had already voted. The woman then stated that they had “requested absentee ballots and never received them.” The little old(er) lady then said “Well it’s already marked that you voted.” At this point the woman voter stated she spoke to someone at the Town Hall and was informed to “just show up and vote anyway.” At this point the second older woman working the table just said to mark an “x” next to the one already on the list and give them another ballot. I didn’t give it a lot of thought until driving to work that I may have just witnessed a case of voter fraud. Should they have been allowed to vote without confirming in some way that they had not already done so?

What! No anti-personnel mines?
Interesting, and hearting. Just voted at the township hall, in a township that has approx. 60 registered voters, here in the UP of Michigan. Everybody knows everybody, most of them related. I had to show my drivers license, or some other proof of address, to someone who I have seen at least once a week, for the last 20 years. She actually made sure it was correct.
Yoop on November 4, 2008 at 11:03 AM
Well the wife and I are off to vote here in Michigan, which honestly does feel kind of useless, there are alot of angry people here who feel abandoned, but seeing people like Lansing Quaker on here gives me hope.
Good luck everyone and God Bless!
Raymer on November 4, 2008 at 11:05 AM
I voted for Mac/Sarah on the first day of early voting, here in Dallas. There were plenty of people at the location, including a little table set up outside with signs that read “Voting Help” surrounded by Barry supporters. One guy had a guitar and was singing songs about Barry.
I spit up a little!
Texas is very red, but Dallas county is getting bluer every election cycle.

Limerick’s son and Sven – deepest thanks for your service and may God bless you.
Sparky – speaking as a Floridian, FL will be RED today. I have no doubts at all. None. Nada. Zip. Zilch. :)
Hubby voted at about 8:30 am and had about a 30 min. wait. I voted around 9:30 pm and only waited about 15 minutes. Two more votes for McCain/Palin!!!
Four years ago there were just four or five touch screen voting machines. This year there were about TWELVE votiing stations so it was much easier to handle a large turnout. We used the paper ballots (bubble in choice like the old scantron tests from grade school) which were then fed through a scanner which then dropped the ballot into the box. Every poll worker checked photo IDs and there was no fuss or bother.
With regards to tcraft’s question on code names…

Fozzy Bear on November 4, 2008 at 11:17 AM
Religion aside, I can’t see how anyone can vote for Obama. The fact that the democrats are idolizing him as a Messiah, and healer of the world, just goes to show you their blindness. No politician should ever be put up on a pedestal like that. Once your politics turn religion, you’ve lost.
Enoxo on November 4, 2008 at 11:17 AM

I just tell everyone that it just snows and is freezing all year long. You don’t want to even visit.

xwraith on November 4, 2008 at 11:19 AM
Just voted for McCain/Palin here in Northern Virginia. It took 10 minutes tops. As I walked into the polling place, I noticed a number of Obots clustered very close to the entrance, which I thought was odd. Then I heard a guy inside getting ready to go out and tell them to back off. Although they were some rather large and threatening-looking ladies, they were gone when I came back out. Obama signs outnumber McCain signs about 3 to 1 in my part of town, which is depressing to see every day, but I’m still hoping McCain can carry VA.

Oldnuke on November 4, 2008 at 11:20 AM
Voted this morning in Chicago. Only one person in line in front of me and my wife at 7:30am. After seeing the morning news broadcast the very long line in BHO’s precinct, we were expecting a longer wait.
Unfortunately, we’re a blue state, but hopefully we can make an impact in congressional and state races.
Neo-con Artist on November 4, 2008 at 11:21 AM
I sent in my ballot for the first presidential election in which I can vote(I’m in college) with the oval darkened for McCain. I find it an honor to be able to vote. Today, I hope all who vote remember that not everyone has the opportunity to do such a thing. Voting is an honor and I cherish it.
Wilberforce_chick on November 4, 2008 at 11:22 AM
Good Morning.
My 6 adult dependants have all voted along with me this fine morning. We waited an hour and a half in a small town in Indiana. I the line with us, i think was every senior citizen in the area, along with alot of Bible Thumpers. Not a single obama sticker could be found in the parking lot, which was full. We all kind of just smiled at each other, knowing, we were doing our civic duty in voting. Alot of Veterans in line too. I’ll be watching all day, lets see the backlash of voters that refuse to be told how they should be voting.

Voted around 8 a.m. in my small town south of Atlanta. More poll workers than voters, although they assured me there was a healthy line at 7. Am devoutly hoping that a great number took advantage of last week’s early voting (my husband did).
Go Flyboy/SnowFox! (Good names, Manly! Your posts have been inspirational these past few weeks, thanks.)

I just voted in North San Antonio. No lines. Only a couple things to report. Only one Obama supporter holding sign outside polling place, my daughter gave him the thumbs down. The poll workers were really trying to push the “first time voter” thing. They kept trying to get me to say I was a first time voter, as well as my two adult daughters that went to vote with me. I’ve voted in every primary and general election for years! They then moved their attention to my daughters, one is a first time voter, so her name went on the list. BTW, she voted for Palin and what’s his name!

It ended up taking the kids and I about 35 minutes to vote – the line was outragious for the P-Z voters (I’m a V). Luckily, it was in my daughter’s gym, and she spent the time telling her brothers and anyone else around about all the things she’s done in that gym.
The McCain camp and one of the mayor’s campaigners were the only ones outside. My daughter asked if Sarah was President yet (we saw her on Saturday, and she’s in love), which caused a few dirty looks to be shot our way. I guess we’re lucky that it wasn’t that long, and I’m proud that we did our part to keep Virginia red.
