Can someone explain to me the purpose of early voting? I heard on the radio of people waiting 7 hours in line. Wouldn't you just go another day?

Went to the smoothie king center yesterday afternoon. There was a line but moved very quickly and there were a bunch of polling machines. Took less than 20 min from the time I parked to the time I got back to my truck.

It's more convenient to be able to choose the day, time and place you want to vote over a week or two. Usually the lines are shorter too other than the first day of early voting.

The entire process from getting in line to walking out of the booth took less than 10 minutes.

I'd say I spent about 1 minute to get called to show my license, and after I signed the book, maybe 1 minute to wait for a booth to open up. Maybe 1-2 minutes getting checked in, and 3 minutes to vote.

This was on Saturday which I think was the second day of early voting.

Texas early voting started on Tuesday. We went on Thursday but the line was maybe 30 min and we had to leave for an appt. Went again on Friday and waited about 10 minutes.

40 - 45 minutes in Central, an area that is generally Northeast of the City of Baton Rouge. I went at approximately 3:45; there were 50 - 60 people in line, and the line moved at a reasonable pace. When I exited, there were still about 30 people waiting. I wondered if the line might grow after 5:00 pm, when people got off work.
