Stupid election day question: Can my wife wait in line for me?

[YOY]

She is not an American citizen. When it is time (or it gets close she can call me and I can come to take my place in the line.) I have to work tomorrow but I can do it from home. I live about 5 minutes from the polling place.

Anyone know.

1. You really think the line will be THAT long?

But, yes, she can.

2. I waited 2 hours last time (2006) in Arlington, VA.

Actually about 1.5 hours.

I expect to wait more.

3. I figure those folks who waited in line 10 hours got bathroom breaks. Right?

But I'm not sure about someone holding your place for the whole time.

4. YES she can

she isn't voting, only standing in line.

5. I don't see why not.

I wouldn't see why that is a problem.

6. not for anything but

Why would you make someone else stand in line for you?

I am leaving my house at 5:45 am to go vote before I go to work. To be honest with you, I would tell my husband to suck it if he asked me to wait in line for him, but maybe being bitchy is just part of my charm...

7. I am in the middle of billing for my department. I will try the early wake up myself.

She said to ask about this. She's the one trying to volunteer for this! :shrug:
