minus-squaredance_ninja@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up16arrow-down1·5 days agoThat’s very strange that they closed the polls with people waiting. My understanding was you had a right to vote if you were in line.
minus-squareRandomgal@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up11arrow-down3·5 days agoBecause it’s a made up story bro.
minus-squareover_clox@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 days agoFuck you, I’m telling the truth. They locked the doors to the library at 8pm and told everyone still waiting outside in the rain to go home.
minus-squareover_clox@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down11·5 days ago8pm is 8pm, no exceptions. Sad that I (and a few friends) got there and stood in line from around 5pm on, only to still be like 200 people back in line when they closed.
minus-squareEccitaze@yiffit.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down1·edit-25 days agoCool story, too bad it’s inaccurate. In every state in the USA, if you are waiting in line when polls close you have the right to remain in line and cast your vote, regardless of how long it takes. If you were told to go home because the polls were closed and they weren’t accepting further voters, then you were lied to.
