I did not vote today. Went to polling place at 6 a.m., 3:30 p.m., and my wife went at 7:30 p.m. Neither of us voted due to excessively long lines. Louisiana needs a better system. Felt confident extra participation would reflect my vote. Presidential race seems decided in advance here, but would have been nice to vote the state races and amendments. How about voting by mail? Props to the people who endured the wait!
