Depends on your state and county/parish. Voter suppression and lack of funding means that many "red" states have fewer voting locations and even fewer early voting locations. My family who live in a Republican county in a Republican state have only two vote early locations that are picked to be least efficient (both close to each other on an extreme end and less populated portion of a huge county). They would have to drive 45 minutes to get there in good traffic. It makes it difficult for folks who may be poor and working class to get out.
