11/6 UPDATE - 2 p.m.: The lines to vote in Herndon have been pretty steady throughout the day so far, with some lulls between the morning and lunch hour voters and again after the lunch hour.

This morning at Herndon Precinct 3, located at Herndon Middle School, early morning voters had about an hour to wait in line to cast their ballot. Voter Carolyn Morgret said she was in line at 6:20 a.m. and was finished at about 7:25 a.m. She then returned to help hand out Republican sample ballots.

Chen Yang, chief election officer at Herndon 3, said they expect a steady line of voters until about 4 p.m., when they expect to see another rush of after-work voters. At quarter after 11 this morning about 1,223 of the precinct's 4,009 registered voters had been to the polls.

At Herndon 2, located at Herndon Community Center, poll worker Les Halpern said they've had fewer identification problems than in previous years with the new voter ID laws helping them move voters through faster. He said the biggest problem election officials are seeing there is people going to the wrong precinct.

Ulo Pulles, Herndon 2's chief election officer, said the polls have been busy all day. At about noon 1,479 out of 4,328 registered voters had visited the precinct, he said.

Robert Walker, chief election officer at Herndon Precinct 1 at Herndon Elementary, said Election Day has been pretty smooth, though there has been a little excitement at their precinct. He said this morning a man standing in line collapsed and 911 was called. At about 1:30 p.m. 1,645 of the precinct's 4,045 registered voters had cast their ballots.

11/6 UPDATE 8:30 p.m.: The polls at the Sugarland precinct at Herndon High School picked up a bit before the polls closed around 5:30 p.m. The precinct had a busy morning and a slower afternoon. At about 5 p.m. turnout was about 60 percent, according to Chief Election Officer Bernard La Due.

"I probably have the best election team in all of the precincts," La Due said. He said his team prepped the night before to set up their polling place. He said this morning they were ready to go a full 15 minutes before doors opened.

The Hutchison precinct at Hutchison Elementary was steady throughout the day. The small precinct had a turnout of about 1,500 out of about 2,600 at 6:20 p.m. The Democratic poll watchers said the team at the precinct did an excellent job of getting people through to vote, with few issues.

Twitter user KCGirlInDC was at the Carson precinct at Carson Middle School today and said at the end of the day turnout was at about 80 percent for the precinct.

At the Floris precinct at Floris Elementary School there were no lines at 6:40 p.m. Chief Election Officer Dottie O'Rourke said she had 12 of the nicest coworkers at the polls in her 18 years working elections. She said the poll watchers at the precinct were also extremely helpful.

O'Rourke said the Floris precinct had visits from two large publications, including LIFE in Russia and USA Today. She said they've had no identification issues they weren't able to solve and it's been a pleasure to work at the Floris precinct.

At 6:45 p.m. 2,532 of the precinct's 3,959 voters had been to the polls. One last voter ran into the building at 6:57 p.m. to cast his ballot.
