Brooklyn, NY – 24 October 2020. A line of voters eager to complete their ballots stretched for 0.6 mile (1 km) a half hour after the polls opened on the first day of early voting in New York. The doors at the early voting location at Brooklyn College in the Midwood neighborhood opened for voters at 10:00 AM, and a poll worker reported that the first person to arrive got to the doors at 4:30 AM. Some people brought folding chairs, some brought their children, and all seemed resigned to wait as long as it took.
