Amid an election that has seen record turnout in states across the nation, one of Arizona's most populous counties cut its polling locations by some 70 percent to save money.It turned out to be the wrong decision.
All day Tuesday, voters in Maricopa County reported waiting in lines that stretched around the block, sometimes for hours. County officials told local news the long lines were in part to blame on independent voters showing up without realizing they couldn't vote in Arizona's closed Democratic and Republican primaries.

I wondered why such very long lines--maybe they have too few polling sites? A new way to control voting???
