Me: Ireland - Approximately 2 minutes until poll in hand is the longest.
I’ve been seeing long lines for the US elections even for early voting. Seems completely unnecessary.
Oregon here 0 minutes. My ballot is delivered in the mail and I can drop it off at the post office or ballot drop box.
You can even stick it back into your mail box (with the flag up), and the mail man should pick it up.
Man I wish, we have to go to the post office to get mail in my town. They don’t deliver to houses.
Houston, Texas. 4.5 hours
The lines are intentional to discourage you from voting
North Houston Suburbs, no more than 20 minutes.
ditto when i moved to austin.
anecdotally: the length of the lines correlate with the wealth of the voting district. i think that texas is like arizona & georgia in that when the lines are long; they’re REALLY long compared to the long lines i experienced in california, new york, & illinois; but the short line places always seemed to be much emptier on election day for some reason.
For sure, my area isn’t necessarily more wealthy, but it is definitely more republican. Coincidence?
