This is everywhere in New York. I just voted in what, I think, is a strong Hillary precinct in Queens, and it is the same. The machines are crappy, the lines are long, and the poll workers are not exactly the most skilled. Upstate, it's far worse--they have six hours less to vote. That, really, is the outrage. So, is this unacceptable? For sure. Does it need to change? You bet. A conspiracy against Obama? Give me a friggin' break. I've voted in a number of states, and three NYC boroughs, over my lifetime. This is just how it is everywhere. So, to whoever posted that comment, do something about it. But, don't attribute it to some non-existant supression of the Obama vote.
