How long did it take at the polling place

[headoverheels 329]

From the time you arrive at whatever line, until you got to the voting booth, how long?

For me, it was under a minute, no line.

Here in CA, at least locally, we have a lot of polling places; over 500 in my county alone. I voted at a Muslim meeting hall.

45 min and I left 1 place, 35 min at the place I ended up voting at.

Postes r made from an iPad or iPhone. Spelling and gramhair mistakes guaranteed move along,

I'm lucky since I didn't have to work today.

Strolled up at 2:30PM, and had my ballot in my hand about 10 minutes later. Volunteers were nice, polling station was reasonably organized.

Polling place?
Zero time.

Absentee ballot: about an hour. Maybe a bit more if you consider I had to go alllll the way to the garage to the kegerator for a refill.

I changed my mailing address about 4 weeks ago, when I realized that election materials would not be forwarded to my temporary address. They changed me away from mail-in, and I didn't have time to change that. They also registered me at my temporary mailing address (big house remodel), so I didn't get to vote on measures in my own town.

I'd had absentee ballots for years, but never filled any out in time to mail -- I dropped them at a polling place on election days.

I walked right up, no waiting. Whole thing took less than 10 minutes.

I have yet to see a video of 500 white people in the suburbs standing in line for 6 hours.

Well, they aren't giving out phones in those neighborhoods.

They are still standing in line at Ohio State campus despite the polls closing almost 3 hours ago. I know one of our friends waited about 2 hours in Columbus. They actually had pizza delivered while waiting.

went around 6 pm, waited for about 50 minutes...and when we left the line was no shorter.

I am in California, usually vote by mail but for some reason we were moved to the "inactive voter" list so didn't get anything this year. not sure why or even how to fix that.

I'm actually quite interested to see turnout numbers this time. Based on anecdotal evidence (meaning, what i saw and what my facebook network is reporting), it seems more people came out to the polls this time.

A few minutes. It was in a local guy's garage. When I was there, 2 other people were voting.

In any of the places that I have ever lived, I have never had to wait for more than 5 minutes. I live in suburbia though. My current home is on the edge of town, where all the police and fire fighters live (seriously).

1 hour 20 minutes. I got there at 7:10 am. I know the lines got longer later in the day. I was glad to see so many people turn out to vote

Hi heels,

So where is the None of the Above option?

Here is Oregon everything is vote by mail.

You folks need to get into the 21st century.

It took about a minute to walk out to the mailbox and back.

Hi Jerry,

Mail is the 21st century? I never mail anything...

I still mail lots of stuff. It's probably an age thing.



However, don't give me the problem; give me your solution.



Mail-in is better than standing in line IMO.
