  4. That is a really poor job discouraging people not to show up before the polls close. If you need to register and can't get to the poll before 7:55, then show up at 7:55! Your vote will count! That little it should seriously be edited out, as it unlawful to tell people not to show up during times in which the polls are open. Poor, poor form JSO.
  5. Also, poll workers need to understand their job, and that it to count every vote of every person in line before 8 PM. We've all worked in jobs when we groan at THAT guy who comes in at 5 to close, but this is a election and peoples civic duties. If you need to be home for MASH at 8:05, don't volunteer to work at a poll.

  6. State law allows you to vote if you are in line before the polls close. Polls close at 8 pm. If you are in line by 7:59:59 pm you must be allowed to vote.
