I've always been in and out in 5 minutes. It might've been 15 minutes in 2016.

Amazing to see these kind of wait times on day 3 of early voting. Day one they sort of dismissed, calling it "the perfect storm", since it was the first day, a holiday, and "glitches".

Voting should be sooo much easier and quicker to accomplish. I've never seen so many people so dedicated to making their vote count.

Imagine a Division 1 College Football program, that every year, the first game of the season, they have some random ticket scanning problem that creates a 2-3 hour delay in getting into the stadium. At half-time, there's still 40,000 fans waiting to get in.

The end of the line finally enters, just in time to catch the post-game fight song.

And it happens... like clockwork... every year.
