Hmmm.. I don't really have a political icon, but this is close. As I text-posted earlier, I got to the Pratt Library at about 7, when the polls open in MD. The line was out the door and around the corner, but moved pretty quickly... for the first 20 minutes. Then it went much more slowly, as it was about half an hour before I got inside. I got to one of the 11 machines they had by about 8:00, so it was an hour total. I'm not sure what I was expecting, maybe the kind of lines they had in Georgia with 1,000 people waiting 12 hours to vote early.
Also, if you're going to try to get a free cup of coffee at Starbucks, go to a "real" one, not one of the ones collocated with a grocery or book store, because they probably won't honor the offer. Or, do what I did and run into a co-worker in line, who offers to buy you a cup.
Finally, GO STILLERS!
