Co workers reporting 1 hour wait in town. After work for me last Fall took 2 hours (after work)
Every Native I have talked to today is voting and there has been decent turnout at their places

Might snow later tonight 3-5"

But the entire county ( Population 15,000) is reddish. The county north of us went for Harris

I voted at 10 a.m. and was #90 out of maybe 300-some, so that's a good number.
The snow, if it comes, will be in northern Wisconsin which is very red and not the strong Democratic areas to the South.
Two years ago the Liberal candidate won by 11%, 200,000 votes. A recent poll here showed Crawford up by 8% but it's imperative for the Left to get out and vote and not be overconfident and complacent.

I was #158. Poll workers said that was good. 150 people total voted in the spring primary 6 weeks ago.

A big turnout here can make a huge difference.
