David Chartier @chartier:
This is the line for the new iPad, right? So… I have to…. vote on which one I get? Apple’s doing it weird this year.

@chartier The iPod touch has a European voting system, where you can choose from six candidates, but might not get your first choice.

Peter Cohen @flargh:
Very excited about the possibility of Elite: Dangerous getting funded via Kickstarter. Also skeptical based on past. kck.st/Sqkk7F

@flargh Nightmare flashbacks of how many times I crashed into an Apple //e space station by not rotating at the right speed.

Marco Tabini @mtabini:
Good luck, America. May the best candidate win!

And by “best candidate,” I mean the one whose name doesn’t rhyme with “chimney.”

@mtabini Love Canadian pronunciation. “Santa came down the chomney, now he was born with a natural language and votes Green.”

Amazed and amused that the guy who wrote this also wrote _Mirror Worlds_: nationalreview.com/corner/332872/

@ReutersZengerle: Wow RT @peterbakernyt: Last time GOP won WH w/o Nixon or a Bush on ticket? Hoover 1928. m.washingtonpost.com/blogs/in-the-l”// Holy crap

Sarah Baicker @sbaickerCSN:
I miss the old-school voting machines of my childhood. Been in line 5 mins, seen tech issues already.

@sbaickerCSN @ryankelly Every time you pulled a lever, you could pretend you were Dr. Frankenstein reanimating a monster. Sometimes true.

Pannill Camp @pannill:
I was turned away in CT for not having proper ID (passport no good?), but came back and crushed. @anamariecox pic.twitter.com/80pqofMe

@pannill @anamariecox CT requires address. Passport no good. The *envelope* it came in, that’s fine. ct.gov/sots/LIB/sots/

HeatherHenderson @HeatherHenderso:
Had a dream that @neiltyson came over to do my podcast and was super nice. How often do I dream of astrophysicists? Often.

@HeatherHenderso Met @neiltyson last month. He is, indeed, super nice.

Not surprised re Biden “vote for myself”. If doesn’t get 2016 prez nom, back to the Senate. Or county clerk. He will die in *some* office.

James Love @jamie_love:
Either Nate Silver is right, or Fox news is right, about who will win. One or the other will have some Splaining to do.

.@jamie_love Being Fox News means never having to say “we’re sorry for causing 2.4 million cases of Election Day PTSD.”

@jbhardman: Backed up to @crashplan in 12 hrs what I was waiting for @carbonite to do in 4 months.” Careful, might have been @carbon14ite.

Melody Kramer @mkramer:
Spending the next five hours in the @templeuniv emergency room with @templeem.

@mkramer Do you have Xanax? I could really use some Xanax. Please tell me what to fake so I’m not diagnosed as Election Day med-seeking.

@FireMeElmo: Elmo been three for over thirty years!” // Actually looked this up. Jesus. Still think of Elmo as “that new red Grover.”

@HowardKurtz: Kinder, gentler Mitt accuses Obama of not working with GOP.” // Grumpy dickish me hopes Romney ain’t seen nothing yet.

erika owens @erika_owens:
@jeffporten oh, good! Love to hear about the impact of reporting like that. It is very scary. After 2004, I have no hubris.

@erika_owens I’ve been feeling good thanks to Nate Silver, but right now I just want to eat 20 Xanax and curl up with hot cocoa.

Melody Kramer @mkramer:
People can’t wait 2+ hours to vote on work days. Today should be a national holiday.

@mkramer Or just stop holding it on frickin’ Tuesdays.

Glenn Fleishman @GlennF:
Who casts the first vote in America? Is there, like, a contest for that?

@GlennF There’s a town in NH. Want to call it Gobbler’s Knob, but that could be the Benadryl talking.

Jesse Spector @jessespector:
140 characters not enough to answer this. RT @kylevetrano: what’s wrong with CNN?

@jessespector @kylevetrano I’ll try: ratings whores who forgot that their original brand was journalistic integrity.
