Still, that hasn’t stopped film producer Christine Vachon, Les Savy Fav musician Syd Butler and other locals (some of them in white pantsuits) from casting their ballots, and it shouldn’t stop you either. (Uptown, Donald Trump cast his vote– and got his ass booed.) Look up your polling location here and make sure you’re in line by 9pm tonight. After that, you can watch the results roll in at one of these election parties.
Here’s how the lines are looking this fine morning.

many people reporting long lines in NYC. But my polling place at the Greenpoint Library was uncrowded. Hipsters wake up late I guess

Lonnng lines to vote in Greenpoint, possibly due to influx of new voters in the neighborhood & failure of @NYGovCuomo 2 give us early voting pic.twitter.com/qeHgeEqDQk
