You live in Arkansas right? LOL. Chicago is one of the world's great cities... Arkansas is, well, Little Rock.

About 10 mi. North of here there is a small town of about 10000 called "Hot Springs Village".

I've heard that 60% of its residents are Chicago refugees. All the people who I know up there are from Chicago. Something's up with that.

North Carolina Extends Early Voting

By Sarah Wheaton

The North Carolina Board of Elections today announced that it would extend early voting hours on Saturday, the last day people can cast ballots in the state before Nov. 4.

The emergency decision affects “one-stop” registration and voting sites in the state’s 100 counties, which have experienced long lines since opening on Oct. 16. The sites can now stay open four hours later, until 5 p.m., on Saturday.

According to The Associated Press, more than 1.7 million people, just under a third of the state’s registered voters, had cast ballots by Wednesday evening in the surprise swing state.

The North Carolina decision comes as states around the country have experienced heavy early turnout, with Gov. Charlie Crist of Florida extending early voting hours from eight hours a day to 12 on Tuesday.
