If I had to go to a polling place, I'd wait as long as it took in order to vote. That's exactly what I did my whole voting life (sometimes in & out in a flash, sometimes waiting in a line for a while) until moving to Oregon 5 years ago. For this election, I took my sweet time considering all the local races & the measures on the ballot, marked my ballot sitting right here in front of my computer, and put it in the mail back to my county clerk about a week or so ago. Voting by mail rocks! Rick
