I was number 67 in to the machine at my polling place**, shortly after noon.
I commented how disgusted I was at such a low number.
The Precinct Captain responded that our area has lots and lots of mail in ballots.
Edit to add:
* If you are in the US in a state holding primaries today. Actually in California there are 7 state props and my county has 2 local props on the ballat, so it's not just primaries to vote on.
** My county went back to paper going into OCR machines. One per precinct station. No clue how many folks are in my precinct.
