    I don’t understand articles like this. I’ve never been in a place where it’s taken more than say 20 minutes to vote. The longest line was still within the air conditioned school that was my polling place. The only difficulty is spending that time staring at and smelling the bake sale to raise additional funds for the school

    workers called it amazing to see so many people exercising their right to vote

    That’s great, but why aren’t they offended that their government made this such a hardship? Why isn’t the FEC forcing remediation including more investment if necessary? Why isn’t whoever made choices resulting in this line fired?

    How is that a four hour line is not clear evidence of interfering with an election, and get immediately addressed?
