Early voting in Ohio grew out of the 2004 election, when people stood in line for hours to cast ballots, particularly in heavily minority and Democratic urban areas. Thousands gave up and went home without voting.

They probably had already voted three times and didn’t consider it a big deal.

The long lines were in places where the Democrats were in charge of the local governments.

I once ran across something by RFK, Jr., who was ranting and raving about the 2004 election in Ohio, claiming that Bush had stolen the election from Kerry because of the long lines in some voting places in Ohio.

That Bush had a 3-million vote plurality in the country (6 times Gore's plurality in 2000) did not enter into it.
