Lines far longer than anything I've ever seen anywhere at any poll over the past quarter century or more. Presumably this will be for the Donkeys. It's still likely the Elephants are going to pull out a 1980 style electoral-majority, popular-minority type win, though, in which case there will be huge crowds on the streets the following week -- regardless of whether the outcome is decisive or not. There's going to be an equally large influx of Bible Thumpers to offset the Cell Phone Girls, and likely a large showing for the Trees and Guns (Greens and Libertarians).
