Line was entirely indoors by 7:15am, but the steady trickle of voters is still impressive in this very rural precinct. Beth Roemmelt and I are greeting voters as they come in to vote.
| Arrived just before 6 am and parking lot is over full (to the point it is a minor safety hazard) and there is a long line.

It's cold, drizzly, and still the relentless trickle of voters comes in; we've sign up new volunteers for future elections as voters come in to vote. It is a tremendous feeling.
Republicans for Wolf set up a rain fly in one of the few parking spaces; though that is no longer the issue it was for the first hour. Suspect it will be an issue again in the late afternoon.
Update: This is in Prince William County, Virginia. I voted in Evergreen Fire Station and worked outside until 2:00pm when my Gainesville Democratic District chair moved me over to Alvey School to finish the day. All the Northwestern Prince William County precincts had very high turnout (75-90%) and all had long lines from 05:30 through 7:15 (some lasted through 09:20). Once the lines died down; they never came back, but the steady trickle of voters never slacked off... and that was quite a surprise. The heavy turnout today, added to high early voting rates got us to 80% voter turnout in Evergreen and 85% at Alvey; simply stunning.
