Are you heading the polls to cast your vote in Tuesday's election? 

They're open from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. 

West County poll workers report long lines for the first hour or so that polls were open Tuesday. By mid- morning, there were some short lines, but mostly a steady stream at most area polling places. At lunchtime, Patch found busy polling places but lines were short. Poll workers expect lines to build back up after 3 p.m. Tuesday.
