BREAKING: Active shooter at a polling place in the greater Los Angeles area: http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-azusa-shooting-injuries-20161108-story.html

What we really need is the full restoration of the Voting Rights Act, and federal monitors in place.

Polls here are conducted at the local (county) level, and every county has its own procedures/ballots/policies. In places like California where we don't have a history of voter suppression, it works well.

Polls closing in 30 minutes: the rest of Indiana and Kentucky, Vermont, Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida (except the western Panhandle), parts of New Hampshire.

Closed but will still admit those standing in line.

Polls now closed in parts of Indiana and Kentucky.

Ten minutes until the first polls close.

@kdfrawg Thanks! Added to my list.

@kdfrawg Having afternoon coffee now…
