Goose Creek craziness

UPDATE: Voters for Goose Creek District 2 were still in line at 9 p.m. at Goose Creek High School.

We've got some wild reports coming out of Goose Creek. Photographer Brad Nettles and reporter Jessica Johnson (who is there trying to vote: 3 hours and counting) say the line at Goose Creek High School one hour after the polls closed still has hundreds of people in it.

Yep, you read that right, hundreds, maybe upwards of 1,000. Jessica says kind souls are doling out crackers and water. Some people are throwing out radical numbers like 5 hours of waiting time.

We would love to hear from some of you Creekers. Post a comment here or send us an email at elections@postandcourier.com. if you swear a little, we understand. We'll edit it out for you.

My wife and I stepped in line @ 3:20pm and I entered the voting booth @ 7:30pm. 4 hours and 10 minutes. What really makes me mad is that I live in the city of Hanahan and had to vote at Goose Creek high School. If I were in the Goose Creek 1 line I would have been in and out in 10 minutes, who ever is the genius to have us vote in the Goose Creek 2 line should be ashamed of them selfs.As we got close to the room where we voted there was still people coming through the front door at around 7:00pm and will have at least a 4 hour wait.There was only 16 voting machines for thousands of people in the Goose Creek 2 line. Something needs to be done before the next election. On top of the long wait there was nobody to tell us where to go after we were signed in.
