Just voted. What a scene. The neighborhood, Clinton Hill in Brooklyn, is about 70-80% black, and the lines were around the corner - over an hour's wait at 10 AM. One poll worker said that she's been doing it for 40 years and has never seen anything remotely like it. Didn't see anyone give up, either. It looks like every black person in the USA is going to vote. Except it's pretty much the same in white neighborhoods, isn't it?
