The local news here predicted low voter turnout today based on the fact that it was supposed to rain (it's pouring now). They even showed numbers that seemed to "prove" that rain influenced voter turnout. What they apparently forgot to look at was that the higher numbers were for presidential election years, and the lower ones were for midterm election years.
What's this about driving around to find a better polling place? Aren't you assinged one to go to?

Nope- there was a huge list in our county and you can go to any of them. I drove by two and the lines came out the building and snaked around- found one that was on the list but less obvious- still in line for an hour.
