I'll be voting later than usual tonight so I should get a good idea of the number.
We were getting total voter count updates every hour. At 4 p.m., with 3 hours left to go and the after work rush not yet in effect, we had as many voters in our precinct as we saw in total in the 2014 midterms. I'm thinking we're going to see the highest midterm turnout since 1994, which was in the presidential election year range, at least for Virginia.
