That's the way it used to be where I lived in the Upper Midwest. Not so
in Pennsylvania where the lines for my voting location at the township
hall are daunting. It takes so long to vote that there are competing
church food booths catering to the lines snaking through the parking
lot. Then throw in an occasional and usually unpredicted rain event,
and you get the picture of election day voting misery.
What's happened is that the near-by city (Hazleton, population about
22,000 is now more than 50% Hispanic. The whites have moved into
the semi-rural township (that's where we are), and the townships
have not provided for enough polling locations to meet the population
explosion.
