Default How long did it take you to vote?

Four years ago I thought I'd go early and be in line by 6:45 AM to beat most of the crowd. I probably had 100 people in front of me and it took at least an hour. It sucked.

This year I'm thinking about going around 9:00 AM. Hopefully most people have to be to work by that time and I'll avoid the major rush. I hate waiting in line for an hour to do something that takes about 2 minutes to accomplish.

So, how long did you wait in line to vote?

I live in a fairly small town, so I'm usually in and out in under 5 minutes! (Yeah I know, that's what she said! )

Early voting took about 45 minutes due to the crowd. Usually in my precinct I am the only one there, but this year I just couldn't wait any longer to vote to throw the bastard out.

Took about 15 minutes. Our voting precinct is at our church. The line was already out the door at 5:45 a.m. though.

One hour, only thing that kept me going was knowing how important it is to throw the bums out.
