I saw one lady with a McAuliffe campaign button who asked why the poll workers could not fill it in the circle for her. Typical ward of the government.
So far this morning we had a handful of issues with optical scan machines at the opening of the polls, but those were all resolved by 9 AM. Very few lines anywhere, as turnout has been relatively light - about 9.1% turnout, although we only had about 140 of 238 precincts with data so far. We expect more numbers this afternoon.
If you plan to vote today, now is a great time - we expect things will pick up again closer to the 4-5 PM hour.

A couple of 70 year old ladies threatening you with an umbrella doesn't count.

They were there early aggressively shoving ballots in people's hands. One poll worker made them move back behind the line (30 ft?)
