Early reports from the Altoona Mirror are highlighting votes for both, but it seems that stories of Clinton votes in these areas are outpacing Obama votes. One thing is for sure, this primary is going to be one for the record books!

State College — PSU:

“I remember going with my mom when I was 5 and I remember the paper ballot,” said sophomore Shannon Scott of Maryland. Today, Scott knew she would vote for Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton when she stepped up to the electronic voting machine. “She has the ability to tell the truth,” Scott said. “I want a person I can believe in. I think Hillary said it, that we’re not looking for someone who’s a good speaker.”

Hollidaysburg, PA:

One of those Democrats was Edna Carney who said “Hillary all the way.” She said Hillary has the experience of helping her husband during his eight years.

Ebensburg, PA:

(9 a.m.) – It was a sign of the intensity of interest in today’s Democratic primary that Adolph Raymond, 87, of Gallitzin voted for the first time in 25 years. It was the same sign on a broader scale that Raymond was part of a mini-surge in the borough’s first precinct, where 20 people cast ballots at the fire hall by 8 a.m., a time by which two or three voters normally show up, said judge of elections Esther Louise Jasper. Raymond came to the polls because he thinks the country needs “straightened out.” He voted for Hillary Clinton, who is trying to preserve her fading chances with a Pennsylvania victory against Barack Obama. He’s an old PennDOT unionist, a member of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Workers, he said by way of explanation. The precinct is getting a rush of voters today because the area is heavily Democratic, Jasper said. Last November, about 400 people voted in the precinct, and the early turnout indicated that number would get passed, she said. Voter Patrick Donald Jasper also voted for Clinton. “I like Bill,” he said, as he got ready to drive away. “She’s just as good.” Anything’s better than Bush, he said.

Altoona, PA:

“I voted for Hillary, I like her beliefs, Barack said some things I didnát like,” said Tammy Hallman. “We were good when Bill Clinton was president and she was behind a lot of the things he did. She will turn the country around.” Election officials anticipate a possible record turnout Tuesday. Clinton needs every vote she can get in Pennsylvania to stay in a close race for delegates with Obama. “I think we need to get things turned around, especially the economy. I voted for Hillary,” said Dave Stenger.

What does this say about voter turnout?

I can’t wait to see returns! Good Luck Senators Clinton & Obama! You are making history!
