Then again...

... I don't really understand why voting in this country is so difficult. Only so much time is allowed? Some people are in danger of losing their jobs if they take the time to vote, especially if election officials have contrived to make the process so slow and so inefficient that it might take hours of standing in line in order to cast that ballot? That's not right. There's no reason for voting in this country to be anything other than quick and easy. The process is slow enough and stupid enough and annoying enough and punitive enough, in some cases, to discourage people. What if you don't have transportation? What if you are too sick to leave your home? There ought to be a way to vote, no matter what your circumstances are, an easy way.
