This is about as asinine as you’ve written. I don’t even know where to start. I’ll just say this though. Lawyers are small businesses. And our firm has over 130 attorneys in 3 states and we represent some of the largest companies in the US and likely 80% of my partners are Republicans. And I’m loving ribbing the shit outta them over the Biden Admin, I digress.
Your generalization is truly crazy talk. The wealthiest cities and states in the US are all Dem controlled. The state of TX is the outlier but even it’s cities are Dem run. Comparing the efficient of Podunk Alabama with its 300 people and 1 street to a city of a million is ridiculous.
You know better than this. Don’t regress.

As to elections, where I live at least, it's city and county officials that determine how long the lines are by how much manpower they allocate to polling sites. And they're never long. There are something like a couple of weeks for early voting, and voting on Saturdays I believe. Now whether that's because of local officials or a Republican Secretary of State, I don't know. I just don't buy that there's massive voter suppression occurring, any more than I buy that there's massive election fraud.
