I always run to vote, this allows me to come in across the ball fields instead of thru the parking lot which means I don’t get lots of ~~sample ballots~~ _trash_ handed to me. I looked, my run time & my elapsed time differed by 5:09, measured from when I crossed the driveway to walk in, sign in, vote, & back out across the driveway again until I started the Garmin again.

There was definitely [shenanigans](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/oh-no-please-no-november-rants/1009569/88) going on, but the same shenanigans that have apparently been going on there during previous elections, nothing new based on who we were voting for. I am pissed about it.
