[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I waited 5 hours to vote in DC last night. Finally got to the poll at 12:20am. I cannot even begin to understand how or why this happened. How did an entire board of directors agree that limiting volume to 10 people at a time and shutting down the majority of voting centers was ok? Who did not see that turning in to a complete clusterf*ck with massive delays? The Chairman of the DC BOE has to go.[/quote]

DC is getting a taste of what it’s like to vote in a blue area of a state run by Republicans.

5-hour lines are what Republican governors create all over Florida and Alabama and Georgia and Mississippi.

And Republican attorneys get sent to places like Philly to challenge votes and create long lines.  I’ve done voter protection in blue cities and seen widespread 3-hour lines while little Brett Kavanaughs make frivolous challenges to create longer waits.  All this happened in PA and WI in 2016.

DC should use this as a way to lead the way nationally to make it easier to vote.
