Jimmy Kimmel asks people what it was like voting in the midterms...last week?

Yes, the midterm elections are on Tuesday, Nov. 6.

But with typically lower than usual voter turnout in the midterms compared to presidential elections, getting people to vote (or not lying about it) can be a challenge.

Fortunately, Jimmy Kimmel has a good way of shaming people into ensuring they vote: by asking people about their voting experience, last Tuesday. And no, these aren't early voters -- these are people claiming to have voted that very day in person.

Surprisingly, people have exceptionally detailed answers lying about what it was like to vote. We hope that their experiences are the same when they do it for real tomorrow.
