My wife and I vote early, via absentee ballot, every time. We've never waited in line to vote in person.

Had a horrible wait on election day a few years ago; a hateful bigot was polling really close to the (effective, thoughtful, visible-minority) incumbent leading up to the election, and people turned up in droves. Broke records for number of votes cast in a municipal election.

But waiting in line 3+ hours to vote, with 2 preschool kiddos with us? Never again. Never. Again.

Early voting, every time. It's the way.
