    Obama supporters warn of misleading email that's circulating

    By Joe Kimball | Published Tue, Nov 4 2008 5:18 pm

    The Obama Minnesota office has received dozens of reports from people who have received an anonymous, misleading email stating that, because of long lines at the polls, Obama supporters should vote on Wednesday.

    The erroneous e-mail has surfaced in many other states, too, said Nick Kimball, the regional communications director for Obama.(He's my nephew.)

    "We're really not too worried about it," he said."But we want to make sure in the last few hours of voting that the people have accurate information: If people are in line by 8 p.m., they can still vote tonight. And you can only vote today."
