on Election Day. I was just back from the courthouse and the line was around the courthouse to vote. They said it was worse yesterday. People are waiting five and six hours to vote.

The same here in Chattanooga. 5 to 6 hour waits. You must be over 60 to vote absentee, or certify you will be out of the county during the early voting and election day. I will vote absentee.

As long as one doesn't stand in line on election day it's safe.

Just voted here in Jacksonville Florida about an hour ago. Didn’t have to wait but about 90% of the stations were in use while I was there.

3 minute wait north of Memphis yesterday.
In Memphis, the lines are very long
if a man speaks, and there isn't a woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

Don't forget the cemetery.
Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.

Pretty sure President Trump said he was winning big in early voting in Michigan. First time ever early voting was going for a republican in Michigan.

They opened up early in-person voting in KY last Tuesday. Saturday, the wife and I got to the County Clerk's office an hour early, and danged if she didn't open up and let us vote anyway. We were #6 and 7 in line, and we were out and done within ten minutes or so. Easy peasy, nothing greasy. It's NICE living in a smaller community who actually cares to help folks out.
I can only imagine how bad it is in Louseyville or Lexington........................

The town I was referencing with the five hour wait has a population of fewer than 10k.

I dropped my ballot off yesterday at a drop box at the county library, there were 8 other vehicle there dropping off ballots besides myself. I live in a pretty conservative area, so people are out in force voting early here.

I will vote when the Constitution says.
How/where did this early [bleep] come from.
First Tuesday, following a Monday, in November.
At the polling place.
Will sign the book, take a paper ballot,
And fill it out.

Long lines probably means poor organization, and need more/ better polling places, especially in populous areas.
I don’t live in such and an almost never farther back than 5 or 6
