This is not directed at the OP.

Some of those who complain about the long lines to vote, are the same people who will get in line for days to get the latest version of their iPad, phones, etc. Or will stand in line for hours just to get in to a rally. Invariably, the ones who do this, will brag about how long they've been waiting/waited. The privilege of voting seems much more important to me. Even if the early voting time-frame had been 30 days, there would still be those who would wait until days 29 or 30.
