Good sign. USA Today doing the reporting. For those that don't know the Shenandoah Valley is a very conservative spot in the state. If the rural rednecks finally turn out huge Terry the Turd [/b] is in trouble.
Turnout high in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley[/b]
At one precinct in Augusta County, Virginia, chief election officer Lesley Piner said she had to ask the county for more ballots before lunchtime, having run out by 11 a.m.
Piner said the county only gave the precinct about 300 ballots for the day. They had surpassed that before noon.
"We've been very steady ... more than I expected," she said.
About 50 people in the precinct opted to vote early and more than 300 out of a total of 1,000 registered voters had voted in the morning — a number that shocked Piner.
"Normally, I would have thought we'd have 350 people for the entire day," she said. "We're going to surpass that, and it's not even noon."[/i]
