Griff, I'm sorry I sounded combative earlier. It *is* a travesty that the voters in Wisconsin were forced to choose between their best civic duty and their best personal health duty. It's a travesty because that forced choice was not unavoidable.

I found the most egregious statistic about this story to be the fact that the number of polling places in Milwaukee, population approximately 600,000, is normally 180, was reduced to five.

That's 120,000 people per polling place. That makes a socially-distant line of 136 miles long, at each polling place. That is galactically fucked up.
