I question the validity of the study results for Florida. People prayed for a 45 minute voting experience. The Florida line graph should be off the page. Thousands of people had 6 to 8 hour waits. I am thinking maybe a mean of four hours, and absentee ballots pull it down that low.
No wonder Ross Hancock had light sticks, Krispy Kreme gave out donuts and others passed out pizza. People were camped out in the dark and needed aid.
We are lucky we didn't use porta pottys. I will admit I held a strangers place in line while he went inside to go potty. I wasn't even in line to vote and he had to be really desperate to flag a unknown person to hold his place.
You could barely read the ballot in 45 minutes. Then you had to make decisions and bubble in. And that did not include the long line to get into the polling place. No way it could be 45 minutes!

Average...not your experience.
Flaridah's always been special and we haven't decided still on the President either.
By design. I was well informed and it still took me 20 minutes to vote.
