How far is your polling place? (democratic, vote, school)

[Smash255]

About 1/2 mile. Easy to walk to and I have a couple times previously, but did so before work so drove.

Mine is slightly less than a mile away. However, I happened to be near my city's election center last Friday and decided to vote early. The line was short.

I could walk to it. It's about a minute by car...depending on the lights.

[KayneMo]

Mine is directly across the street from me.

[5-all]

3 blocks, PS 91.

[Mattks]

About 2-3 miles. But there is no line, 1 other voter when I stopped by this afternoon.

My normal polling location here in Southwest Houston is a little less than 1/2 mile

For the first time this year, we can vote at any polling place on election day. I voted early close to work but there's a polling place about 3 blocks from where we live.

My usual place is about a quarter mile away. I did early voting and that location was under two miles away.

How far do you need to travel to cast your vote?

I am starting to think my city has a lot of polling stations, based on my completely unscientific poll.

I live in a fairly dense part of my city, with about 12k people per square mile. I have one friend who lives 3-4 blocks away, and another friend who lives 7 blocks away. We all have different polling places.

2 of us (including me) have a 1 block walk. The other friends has a 3 block walk. I discovered there is another polling place about 2 blocks from my apartment that I am not zoned for!

So how far did you go to vote? And how did you get there? Walk, drive, bike, helicopter....

50 feet ..to the closest one.
