I dont understand quite why there are such long lines in Denmark. I know about America and why due to historical reasons they vote on Tuesdays, but this is the first I heard about queues in Denmark. Having been to Denmark quite a few times I always though Denmark to be better organized than Germany even. Maybe you could give some background as I am genuinely puzzled. For some background. In Germany I voted in big cities, medium cities, tiny villages. Big elections and small. I never ever had to wait more than 5 minutes, I don't actually remember ever having had any experience that equated to 'waiting' as you would in a supermarket queue etc. I made some smalltalk with the election helpers sometimes but that's about it. I also never heard anybody ever mentioning waiting time when voting. Basically voting happens on a Sunday. You get your morning breakfast. You decide to go on a walk with your family either in the morning or afternoon and stroll towards the voting place with your voter registration card and passport. You get the ballot. They strike your name from the list. You vote. You go home. As for electronic voting. As a software developer I say it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever at all. It is already risky to tabulate the final data in software and forward this electronically. It would be better if it was phoned upwards and the written document then signed, sealed and sent afterwards for verification.
