There may have been 30-50 people at my polling place in Fresno, CA, at 7:30 a.m., but I waited only about 1 minute before I got my ballot.
My compliments to the people running the show. It was spectacularly, smoothly run.
I laugh when I see all the people in huge lines across the country.
Do these people just not have enough precincts to vote?
My husband and I will vote later this afternoon in Tracy but my daughter voted on her way to work and had no problem zipping in and out about 9 this morning. Our precinct is in an upscale subdivision so I would expect a lot of voters tonight.
As far as lines are concerned, I have voted in every election since we moved here in 1992 and never had to wait in line. I always have with me my sample ballot filled out and ready to simply copy to the official ballot. It takes all of about five minutes to vote. Perhaps other voters expect to make their decision behind the little curtains and that drags out the voting process?
