Given what's happening with the high voter volume, it seems likely to me that there will be lines. And Democrats, who actually have to work for a living, are usually the later voters. Seems like a place for some funny business if there aren't already contingency plans in place. What time do the polls close???

Thks for the feedback. So do the polls close at 7 or 8? Maybe different times in different cities?
