tonight in America: @nbcwashington is reporting that a DC police officer stopped by a polling site after 7 PM today to tell people waiting in a long line there they were in violation of the curfew by staying to vote
it's not hard to envision how, come November, there will be long lines at many polling places around the country AND circumstances which prompt curfews.

So what happens then?

*many of those who voted in person today said they did it because of problems getting mail in ballots
the reasons that people will have to doubt the November election results have mounted even since this piece was published last week: theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
Imagine a Nov. 3 scenario: an understaffed polling place in Milwaukee has voters waiting for hours in the cold,wearing PPE. Armed Trump supporters:patrol to intimidate. Police try to enforce a curfew.

And potentially enough votes there to swing the state and the whole election.
