How long did you wait? - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Just a note to remind you all to Vote today--regardless of who you are voting for.
Thought it might be interesting to know what state you voted in and how long you had to wait at the polls?
Voting is a priviledge and I hope you all have taken advantage of it.
Have a great day!

Hi Dawn, I'm in Michigan. I went the Polls at Around 5:00 PM. About 20 minute wait. Not too bad, considering the projected turnout. :spectacle

Since I posted the original question, I voted at noon time at my lunch hour and only had to wait for about 15 minutes! Pretty good, since all my co-workers here in Florida waited over an hour before work.

Hi Dawn, I'm in Mass. I voted at 7am. Although we work different shifts, since being sober, there are somethings we now like to do together. Of course, with her a Democrat and myself a Republican the chit, chat in line can be difficult. We waited about 30 minutes. We had gotten ther at 6 am. Good thing, when leaving the line was out the door and down the street. The best part was voting. Many times I'd sit on a bar stool and talk about saving the world, and then not bother to vote. Many times I went to vote and stopped for a few drinks and said the hell with it. Now, I paticipated in the process. Wrote some letters to the editors, and felt surprised and proud that people gave me compliments about them. Don W
