The war in Iraq...

It's an issue on people's minds at the Mohegan Fire Station.

"It's a tough call," said voter Doreen Newman. "I don't have the answer. I think we did what we wanted to do, but now it's time to come home. It's time for a change."

Outside the polling place, volunteers for Democratic nominee Ned Lamont and incumbent U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman were wearing signs and passing out literature as a steady stream of voters came to cast ballots.

"Turnout has been crazy," said Kathy Morosky, a Lamont volunteer who took up her position at the polling place at 5:30 a.m.

"I've never seen anything like it," added Henry Banas of Ledyard, wearing signs indicating where to find LIeberman's name on the ballot. "There were lines of people waiting to get in first thing this morning.

Among those voting was John Hong - his first time voting.

"It waqs good," he said. "I got the power."

Now it's off to LOedyard.
