    My wife waited an hour and a friend of hers waited 2 hours to vote. She also heard several stories of people passing out in line. It’s disgraceful. This is absolutely driving down participation. I’m sure the state GOP would even say if you can’t stand in a line for over an hour while it’s sunny and high 80s maybe you just don’t care about voting that much.

      Ugh. I’m always so thankful that Colorado has had mail-in voting for so long.

      It should be mandated at the Federal level that every state is this free. A voting system that works to actively discourage voting is a disgrace to this nation.
