In Canada it’s a half-day off, the polling places are many and varies, the waits are short and/because everything is hand-counted.
America uses a big-bang polling stations with machinery and demonstrations and gun nuts and intimidation of minorities and disenfranchisement , etc. It’s a whole thing.
Not getting time off is part of the cruelty toward the working class.
Not having to confirm your identity seems like it’s a jank but it’s part to services the elites don’t want to give the plebes, just hidden.
Lines are long, you May Not be generous with free water, in some places, counts take weeks on these fast computers and the legal challenges take months where ours is over in a night.
Safe to say it’s gonna be super-different from a UK election.
That’s odd. In the UK the lines are never long. We don’t get time off, but you can find time to drop in to the polling station anyway since they’re open 7-22. Our counting and decision is decided overnight and the prime minister may change the day after that
Weird. In the UK it’s 7am to 10pm and the queues are rather short
