An Angry V**er in Arizona

I just want to be clear: my complaints about having to wait in line for 2.5 hours last night to cast my v**e are about incompetence (the decision to only have 60 polling sites in all of Maricopa County, the third largest county in America, compared to 200 in the 2012 e******n) and about how I'm sure it surprised, discouraged and prevented a lot of older and/or disabled people to v**e. I've never had to wait more than 20-30 minutes in any other e******n here in Phoenix, so I never thought I'd need to use a mail-in b****t.
I get it - people wait in line for hours, if not overnight on the evening of Thanksgiving for a good price on a big screen TV on Black Friday, but that's their CHOICE - but forcing old or disabled people to make a choice between having to physically suffer to do their civic duty or giving up their right to v**e to avoid that physical suffering is UN-American and just plain WRONG.

I also think it's wrong for our media to call a winner when there is STILL a 3-4 hours wait worth of people to cast their v**e! :thumbdown:

The v**ers rights act was k**led by the SCOTUS allowing the GOP to pull all kinds of tricks like this. 30 percent Hispanic, they do not want them v****g. Other places had no democratic b****ts only GOP, and were told they had to use those. NC forced Indian people to spell their names which were quite long, among other indignities. So thank your GOP.

As long as the cities with the majority of minority v**ers are disenfranchised, then they have achieved their goal. This is a trial run for the general e******n.

The fools in Arizona who elect republicans to run government should not expect anything but poor service and slightly lower taxes, the lower taxes only if they are rich of course.

You have a Republican governor and a Republican Secretary of State, who oversees state e******ns, so your gripe is for those you elected.

Actually if you could even tell the t***h, part of the hold up was for those phone calls that your dip stick democrat leaders pulled, calling in for everyone to slow down and wait for the "dead v**ers league" to show up and v**e!
