David Hollis (aka @aardvarko on Twitter) checks in from Hamilton, New York, with a straw poll Monday of students in grades 6-12.
Hollis, of the local news site Radio Free Hamilton, got the results from a teacher friend of his. He Tweets: "Obama 102 & Hillary 26. GOP: McCain 25, Paul 13, Rommney 11, Huckabee 4."
Those numbers are about what you'll see in today's voting, Hollis predicts. He thinks Republican Mitt Romney will do a little better with the adults than the kids. Otherwise, it's all about Barack Obama up there. "The only signs you see here are Obama signs." Polls are open in Hamilton from noon until 9 p.m.
We'll be Tweeting the election tonight. Stroll over and check it out.
