LA County now allows you to vote anywhere within the county. I tried 3 places because the ones were so long. Even the short line took an hour. My - jnine Mar 4, 07:31
I mentioned this yesterday. -- nm - Qale Mar 4, 06:16
I completely support additional measures like early voting and mail-in to help alleviate this. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 4, 05:48 6
- how about not closing hundreds of polling places across your state? -- nm - decline Mar 4, 05:52 4
  - We should have enough polling places to not have 2-hour lines. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 4, 05:55 3
    - “But 1:59 is a-ok!” -- nm - znufrii Mar 4, 06:09
    - Lol you could run for office. And how about answering whether you support the poll closures -- nm - JackDawson Mar 4, 06:03 1
      - This might be the worst thing you've ever said about me in the history of this board. - Strongbad Mar 4, 06:18
- Agreed. Though, if only they hadn't closed 750 polling locations since 2012 this might not have to happen. -- (link) - Krusty Mar 4, 05:52
And LA County allowed people to vote in person over the past two weeks and they STILL had overwhelming lines when polls closed -- nm - budice Mar 4, 05:47
Wow those people that stuck it out are amazing I'm not sure that I would or could -- nm - JackDawson Mar 4, 05:41 6
- I saw reports of people in line for 5 hours... -- nm - decline Mar 4, 05:53
- I'm hugely impressed with them. I'm certain some people did not stick it out, and that's sad. - ty97 Mar 4, 05:43 4
  - is the rule that if you're in line when polls close, you get to vote? I thought polls hard closed at whatever time. I think I was turned away once. -- nm - amanda Mar 4, 05:55 2
    - That's what I've always heard here in GA. Not sure if it's an official rule or not. If you're in line when polls close, you get to vote. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 4, 05:57
    - Each state owns its election laws, but everything I read yesterday was "if you are in line you get to vote" -- (edited) - ty97 Mar 4, 05:57
  - Disgusting and sickening. PSA: If you're apologizing for, or even engaged in systemic takedowns of the side AGAINST, this stuff--ask yourself why - JackDawson Mar 4, 05:46
