3:30 PM: I'm off to class - be back with liveblog 4 around 5:30!
3:17 PM: Current wait times: East/South: 60+ minutes, Pollock/44: 15-20 minutes, West: 5 minutes
2:50 PM: Afternoon lull setting in, but lines still long - pen problems apparently common across county.
2:40 PM: About 1100 people have voted in East Halls, a mostly freshman area (Precinct 24) at this point - 968 voted in 24 in 2004.
2:30 PM: My laptop has been in use a lot over the last hour for people to check their polling place location. Lines about the same length; we are being visited by the Republican House candidate right now (PA-05).
2:00 PM: 30-60 minute waits continue, depending on precinct and last name.
1:29 PM: According to our projections, turnout right now is probably equal to 2004 at the on-campus precincts. Lines have moderated somewhat - East, South, and 44 have lines, Pollock and West do not.
1:20 PM: Lunch rush is slowing; lines still lengthy.
12:54 PM: Crowd still seems upbeat and happy to vote.
