Poll question: Did you have to wait in line to vote? |
|
For me, there was no line, but the booths were all full for just a second or two.
For those who voted today, did you have to wait in line to vote?

and I've NEVER had to wait more than 3 minutes previously, and that's usually because I'm chatting with my neighbors that work the polling place.

4. I haven't voted yet, but I'm expecting a line |
|
a meeting at work this morning was significantly empty because of people who were stuck in lines and had been in them since 7:00-8:00, the meeting was at 9:30.

Three booths, paper ballots. When I voted, I sat down in the last vacant booth, so the person or persons behind me may have had a short wait.

I went to work too early to do it in the morning so went about 4:30 when most people are at work, so that may have had something to do with it. In past years it's been up to 30 minutes when going before work.

I vote absentee, but I spilled something on my ballot, so I took it in to my precinct, surrendered it, and voted in person. No line at all this morning.
