BALLOT QUESTIONS
YES NO Question 1: Income Tax Ban 8,031 4,816 Question 2: Supreme Court Oversight 6,600 5,821 Question 3: State Convention 4,614 7,973UPDATE, 4:30 p.m.: Town Moderator Chris Goodnow gave a rough estimate that 10,000 people had already voted in Salem today as part of a huge turnout for the general election.
Long lines have been the story of the day as voters have waited more than an hour to cast ballots in particular at Fisk Elementary School and the Ingram Senior Center.
"The people in lines have been showing great patience," said Goodnow.
He believes the town should have enough ballots to get through the rest of the evening. Goodnow said the state Secretary of State's office gave the town 18,000 ballots for the day.
The polls are slated to close at 7 p.m., but Goodnow said that is a situation he plans to monitor closely.
Patch also caught up with Republican gubernatorial candidate Ovide Lamontagne at the polls in Salem this afternoon.
UPDATE, 2:15 p.m.: Check out our mid-day election report. Election officials are Salem are anticipating a 70 percent turnout. Add your own photos from the day if you have them.
