Wow, won't even allow voting for those in line? You don't even have to tell me which party controls that state. Bet there's no mail-in or absentee ballot availability either, or very strict rules to limit it.
I've been watching early voting numbers in my county, they even have a "current wait" tracker online, and it's been regular 30 mins to even a few hours wait each day. Now imagine the same number of people all in one day. It's madness to force that on people.
My only solution to you is try to use midterm voting for the local stuff. Or bend the rules and claim you'll be out of state and need an absentee ballot. I think they legally can't prevent that, even thought they'd love to.
