Photo of My 9 Hour Wait to Vote in Florida.

After surviving this line today, I'm exhausted, dumbfounded but mostly enraged at our Republican Govenor Rick Scott for reducing the early voting period in Florida.  According to the official wait times tracking website, the lines were 4 hours today in Aventura.  I'd reckon that most folks today waited at least double that time ... it took me 9 hours!

The line was so long it is difficult to make out, but it snaked many times back to the trees at the back of the picture and started with a winding row down a flight of stairs to the left.

I doubt most folks here will ever forget this day.  Democracy is being challenged but the people will persevere and win this fight.

9:16 PM PT: Thanks everyone!  I've been humbled twice ... by the dedicated folks who selflessly stood in line and the kind recognition of the community here!
