Sorry for the short hit and run diary.

This just appeared in my newsfeed on Facebook from WTDY in Madison:

BREAKING: Madison City Clerk predicting turnout in Madison of over 100 percent (meaning large numbers of people are voting and registering at the polls).

I will add more as it becomes available

Madison City Clerk tells me turnout is on pace to hit 119% in Madison, adding "That would be unprecedented."

In case any of you are wondering how it is possible to break 100% it is because in Wisconsin we have same day registration. Which means if this report is correct that 19% of the voters in Madison are first time voters.
