Polls open 12 hours+ 1600 divided by 12 = 133. So each hour all they had to is get 133 voter thru with 2 machines. Not that difficult, jeeeez
Dunno about you, but I don't think it takes much more than a minute to vote.
You're giving college students too much credit...hehe.
Heck...I'd bet 1500 of the 1600 hadn't sobered up by 3pm. So, ending the vote at 3am seems about right to allow 12 hours of voting. Instead of 7am-7pm...they just did 3pm-3am. Extra hour after "last call" at the local bars to get back and vote as well.
I worked the polls and you cannot get people through in one minute. It just doesn't work that way. We had a lengthy ballot in our county and it even took those who brought a marked sample more than one minute.
