We’ll have updates through the day and then analysis tonight, right here on the Blue Ridge Caucus. You can find the returns themselves on roanoke.com.

If you hear of something happening at the polls you think we should know about — long lines, machine break-downs, etc. – let us know.

    10 minutes in South Roanoke. Too bad people can’t come from one of the more crowded districts.

    There is one voting machine down out of three at the Williamson Road #5 polling place (VFW hall on Grandview Avenue). It was slowing down the line considerably this morning, when I waited an hour between 9 and 10 a.m.
