More than one-third have voted at strong GOP precinct in Botetourt

By 10 a.m., about one-third of the registered voters at the Cloverdale precinct in Botetourt County have cast their ballots — 890 out of 2,655. That’s 33.5 percent.

Election workers at Read Mountain Middle school say at one point they had 75 voters going through in 15 minutes.

In 2008, McCain took just under 67 percent of the vote in Cloverdale.

Read Mountain is also one of the places where you can get a flu shot, too. As of 10 a.m., 120 people have done so.

    Not surprised by this…I showed up right at 6AM, there were already at least 75 people lined up waiting to get in when I arrived. The line was considerably longer by the time I got through and voted.
