Does it irritate the crap out of anyone else when polling places are in a church? I have to go to Christ the King Lutheran church tomorrow.

No problem... it's a building and it's for voting that day... and apparently the most available, affordable and appropriate place to setup the voting equipment. If there were a flood, fire, or other disaster and they setup the FEMA or Red Cross relief accomodations there would it be a problem? Blood drive, a problem? If you were otherwise homeless and they offered you a place to eat and sleep... a problem?

You’ll be fine, don’t sweat the small stuff, just bring your nonbelieving badass self to the dam church and vote the deepest richest most luxurious blue this color blind guy ever heard about.

No, as they generally have decent parking and room to accommodate crowds.

My problem with using churches is that the ones selected in my area are nowhere near buslines. That means people without their own vehicles are forced to walk great distances (in the awful Phoenix heat), or beg a ride from someone. Just another way to disenfranchise voters.

My polling place is a church. It the big scheme of things it is not as bad as some churches would be in that the voting happens in an area with a separate entrance on the back side, and is set up in room immediately off the entrance. So thankfully you don’t have to wave to Jesus on your way to vote or pass by propangda either. I have mixed feelings about it but this church has been the polling place for as long as I have lived in the neighborhood. In Nebraska they have your party affiliation in the registration book so automatically give you the correct ballot.
