Subject: Re: OT: Voting day!
I suspect wait times will be *very* high after work today. My friend in
Alaska emailed me and said that 50 people were in line when he arrived to
vote at 6am. I hope he didn't have to wait outside!! I think there will
be long lines all over the US.

Last election (in 2000) my wife and I had to wait 4 hours to vote. There
were people getting pizza delivered in line!

This year we mailed in our ballots in October. Way, way easier and stress
free!!!
