2. On Toledo's local news they said it's at least a two hour wait. The line looked longer than that .

I don't understand why early voting here has only one polling place per county. If they're going to have early voting, which is supposed to make it easier for people, why don't they include ample places where people can -- you know -- vote?

If I were to do early voting, I'd have to drive to a distant city to do so, then stand in line for hours. Can't see the point in doing that because my usual polling place is pretty small and I expect little or no wait.
