I'd be curious to see which states and locations have the worst waits.

If you'd be so kind, anyone care to share:
State, location (city, suburbs, rural), time they voted

I'm kind of curious if there's a pattern.

I live in a more suburban area of Indianapolis. I voted around 2 PM. 6 minutes from the time I exited my car to the time I got back in my car. Shortest ballot I've ever filled out too.

One of the election officials gave me a "Go Sioux!". :D

I just got home from my polling location. I left my house at 7:21 and got home at 7:39, and would've been quicker if I could have made that light. Brutal waiting line, waiting for the old ladies to figure out how to find my name, listed in alphabetically ascending order, on the registry.

The old ladies in our precinct have this down to a science. I think they've been doing this since Grant was in office.

Oh, and I was ballot #1206 according to the scanner some 30 minutes before the polling close. Clearly I'm in a highly urban area.

Honestly, for the cost increases we're seeing here, I couldn't care less about the people that benefitted from it.

*As an argument for why it works. It doesn't work. The way it was setup is broken, and regardless of it helping some people, that is not worth the cost of jacking up costs by 7x for the hard working business owners out there.

I didn't say I liked it. What I said- the cost from the Bill is not explaining increases in cost. Until they address the insurance issue things are going to continue to be a problem. If you think repealing it is going to help- well, I suppose if you stop getting insurance we will be back to healthy people having events and becoming leeches on the system they didn't pay into when they get sick but it doesn't address the root of the problem- over charging, pharma and insurance. All [genuflect here] big businesses that must not held accountable because they neeeeeed to make huge profits.

and yes my grammar sucks

When I say get rid of it, I mean that it is too ****ed to fix. Don't get rid of it and do nothing. Get rid of it and actually put something that works in its place. And no, I don't know what that would look like, I am far from the expert. I don't need to be an expert to see that its broke.

About a 25 minute wait for me this morning. Pretty sure if Clinton had put it in a larger space than in the township office my wait would have been shaved down by about 10 minutes as it's pretty tight in there. That and I got stuck behind some old lady who forgot her purse in the voting booth.

Good Morning Lodge.

For some reason, I woke up around midnight and just couldn't sleep, so I guess I'm posting here.
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #187: Lazy End Days Of Summer

Staying up way too late. Got sucked into the elections. Had some testy talks, some good talks. A whirlwind of a night overall.

Up for another few minutes, to see if the (so far) President-elect will actually talk soon, but patience is running thin. I'm tired.

Good Morning, MEUSA! :)


Good Morning to the rest of tLodge! :)

The alarm is going to go off in 3.5 hours. Tomorrow is going to be below-average.
