Here in the peoples republic of Berkeley, we had some neighborhood lady pushing pamphlets outside the door (which I thought was illegal on election day) and we had 2 registration lists for our precinct, an A list and a B list, the A list had most everyone who showed up to vote, while for half an hour the B list seemed to have nobody coming in.

its going to be an interesting couple of days ahead I think....
