Arizona officials decry long voting queues

In 2012, the county - which includes Phoenix, the state's largest city - had 200 polling places.
Found this on the BBC : http://www.bbc.com/news/election-us-2016-35900011

Phoenix is a predominately Democratic area. In Maricopa County, about 1.2 million people are eligible to vote, but there were only 60 polling places.
Arizona's Republican-led legislature decided to lower the number of polling places to save money, officials said.


Unintentional consequences or part of the plan

No voter in 2016 should stand in line for 1 -2-3-4 or 5 hrs in any election in any state reguardless of income, party of choice, or neighborhood..


make election day a national holiday
