Third world country?
Vote by mail if you can't stand. Or bring a folding chair.
The bullshit amendments are slowing the vote just like the Repukes wanted.
I'm going today with my daughter Hillary...her first vote! I will wave signs while we wait and hand out slate cards.
Count on the seniors, at least they turn out!
Fired up and ready to VOTE!!!!

Until Palm Beach county announced that they misprinted 27,000 absentee ballots. I don't trust them here.

As for seniors...they are not accustomed to this early voting concept. Like my folks they are used to going in Tuesday and voting.

1. Open more early voting locations.
2. Don't stop the early voting 3 days before election day.
3. Make it two weeks instead of 10 days.

that seniors are standing in line that long when planning ahead is so easy

Seniors have been around long enough to know about absentee ballots. Such a simple thing to do. And no postage necessary
