User Report

Precincts 6 and 7 both use Barclay E.S. and there was a lot of confusion with two lines and little instruction as to which line is for which precinct. Further complicating the issue is that this is also the 7th legislative district which was apparently easy to confuse with the 7th precinct. Also, an election judge (!) was telling people that they had to vote in under 2 minutes or their vote wouldn't count!
