New York City - Congressional District 5 - 7am - #14 - Whoo Hoo!

It was awesome to finally have someone to vote FOR instead of vote against!

Will vote for Ron Paul again this coming November!

If you voted for RP today, post here!


Also saw major RP signage chain on I-495 (major highway into "The City" from the 'burbs)! Kudos to whoever did them!!!

I wish I was in a Super Tuesday state. I won't be able to vote for RP until March 4th because I live in Ohio.

Alabama district 5 here. I was there at 7:05am and was number 56 to vote! 2/3 were for the Democratic primary though. The poll worker sounded genuinely surprised when I asked for a republican ballot. Saw one guy with a Paul sign when I walked out - offered him some words of encouragement and had to go to work.

Georgia District 6 (Marietta/Cobb County). MASSIVE turnout today. The only signs I saw were Ron Paul ones on Columns drive and Johnsons Ferry (thanks to whomever put those up). damn good location!

Got an employee voting for him too.

In New Jersey on Route 9. (southern middlesex/Monmouth counties) the only signs on the median were Obama.. The only signs on the overpasses were Ron Paul.

I love seeing Ron Paul signs.

There are some Romney signs in the area here, but near the poll location it was all Paul. :)

I was telling my landlord how Ron Paul was the first candidate since Reagan to get the youth stirred up for the G.O.P. I think my boss may vote for him just because he's unquestionably the best on issues, and the media be damned. I'm at work now, but will head straight to the polls after. Voted Paul for President in '88, and it felt like the right thing. Today it will not only feel like the right thing, but like it's actually doing some good! Can't wait!

Rain, rain, keep falling down
Keep the sheep from going to town
Patriots who gave their all
Are getting wet to vote for Paul!

My friend in TN said that there are nothing but tons of RP signs around his voting location. haha

Just got back from voting. My daughter and I both voted. There was no one else there when we arrived. Said they hadn't been busy yet.

As we were leaving a couple of guys came up to us (my vehicle is covered with RP stickers and homemade signs) to see if I had any more RP stickers. I didn't, but I told him about the meetup group we have and he could get some there.

And yes, how refreshing to actually cast a vote for A GOOD MAN.

My girlfriend and I voted here in CT this morning and put up a couple of signs out there and did some sign waving for over an hour. My father and brother are both voting for Ron Paul here today as well. So atleast 4 votes in CT and hopefully some people were inspired by lit drops and conversations.

It felt awesome to vote for Paul -- finally!

It felt great to pull up to the polling place in my pimped out Ron Paul Love Missile.

Yeah I managed to vote even with my toddler having a terrible twos moment, haha. Fortunately one of the ladies there was nice enough to watch her and try to distract her while I was voting.

Sweet! I saw the video of the Knoxville/Townsend folks sign waving the other day. Man, I wish I could have been there. So many people honking. :D

Voted, along with my sister. St. Charles County Precinct 107.

I put two Ron Paul signs up along the walkway leading to the polling station and they're the only candidate signs there. I stuck around for a while to make sure the Romney aholes that have been picking off our signs didn't take them down, but after sitting there for about 30 minutes there's way too much traffic for anyone to try to do that and not be noticed.

My mom, dad, and my other sister will be voting for him later as well.

Edit: The weather is pretty lousy, spouts of heavy downpour and it's cold.

I voted for Paul today in Illinois. He was #2 on the ballot. Good sign? I also voted for his two delegates and two alternates.

Good luck Paul.

I just went to vote in NY and they could not find my name in their book. I have been registered as a republican for the last 10 years and have voted in the same location for the last 15 years. I never had a problem before today. It really makes me wonder what the hell is going on? I was allowed to vote by affidavit. but I am really pissed because I was so looking forward to being able to pull the lever for Dr. Paul and now I don't think my vote will be counted at all.

Literally, as I was bubbling in Ron Paul's name, I got a text message telling me to vote for:
the only Republican 4 low taxes, less spending, gun rights, no amnesty and no UN. RonPaul2008.com
It felt like fate.

Ron Paul 2008.

edit: San Diego, CA here =)
