Video: What will be the biggest surprise on Election Day?

It was our last day on the campaign trail, and the first thing my team and I noticed when we pulled into Cincinnati were long lines of people wrapped around city blocks. Temperatures were in the low 30s when the polls opened early this morning, but that did not keep voters from turning out and standing in long lines to cast their votes.

This was the first time I've personally witnessed this kind of turnout for a presidential campaign. As I spoke with people waiting on line, some who had been there for more than two hours to cast their ballot, I realized that there was a sense of pride and urgency in the air. No matter who each person had chosen as their candidate, they were not leaving until they were able to exercise their right to vote.

They had some help waiting on line. Volunteers had driven from all over the country to keep people motivated (not that anyone needed motivation). A man who had driven from Atlanta with his 14-year-old daughter walked down the line and asked if anyone needed him to feed the meter so they wouldn't get ticketed while exercising their civic duty. Other volunteers distributed hot chocolate, water bottles and hot pizza.

Today's question was: What will be the biggest surprise to occur on Election Day? As you'd imagine, answers varied, but people were eager to give their opinions. Several people told us it would surprise them if there were a landslide victory for either candidate. One of the most unexpected responses were from those who believed that all of the polls they'd been seeing on TV and online could be making the race appear much closer than it will actually turn out to be. There was also a young man who told me that he hopes that people will be surprised by how many people do not choose either Barack Obama or Mitt Romney. This young man said he felt that being able to choose anyone he wants is a major factor in why was waiting on line to vote.

Several people also emphasized the importance of voting no matter their party affiliation. In addition, some told me there was no limit to the amount of time they were willing to wait on line to get the opportunity to vote.

Now tell us what you think. What will be the biggest surprise to occur on Election Day?
