Five people in line ahead of me and I still waited 15 seconds tops because they had so many poll workers ready to assist you. Very efficient especially considering they used paper ballots.

Because there were about 4 people in front of us (MIL, wife and me) and my MIL is pretty old (86) and slow it took us about 15 minutes. But we voted early.

About a 15 minute wait at my local elementary school (8:15 am). By the time I left, it looked like it was down to about a 5 minute wait.

30 minutes for me on Thursday at 1 of the 5 early voting locations in my county. Tons of people but it flowed pretty smoothly. My wife waited 45 minutes on Friday at a different one. They only had 8 stations so it was a bit slower.

Over an hour. I've never had to wait before. I went before lunch and I was already into the 1,000's at my precinct.

It took me about 10 seconds to get my ballot, then another 30 seconds to vote. I went at about 7:40 this morning. This was also with my 4 year old son tagging along.

5 minutes, but I went at a strategic time when I knew the lines would be small.

About 5 minutes to fill out my ballot, 5 minutes to drive to the post office and mail it back to North Carolina.

Got there right as the polls opened (6:30AM) and finally voted at 7:37. At least 200 ahead of me, probably closer to 300.

Ditto, minus the son. No wait at 7:40. I have never in my life encountered a line at the polls.

Showed up to early voting site 3 times and left the first two times because the line was too long. The last time I decided just to suck it up and get in line. Took 45 min to get the ballot.

15 minutes of waiting in line, and I got there just after the polls opened. Actual voting took maybe two minutes due to a lot of local races being uncontested.

Line was longer than usual because one person didn't properly complete their ballot (we vote electronically) before leaving. The only way to make the machine ready to vote again is to reboot.

20 minutes. I arrived at 11:15 AM EST. There were approximately 70 people in line. Smooth process. Looked like mostly people without jobs in line (most in very causal dress, some there with children, etc.).

At 11AM, there was no one ahead of my wife and I to sign the book. So less than 5 minutes.

Precinct at the next table had maybe 10 in line.

Only about 10 minutes from check-in (multiple precincts at the location) to turning in the scantron sheet.

About 20 minutes tops at the local middle school a block down from where I live. They had 8 voting booths and about 6 people working in total.
