You've been very lucky then.
For Obama's first term election, the lines at my polling place were across the room, out the door, down the hallway, out the building door, and a good distance down the block (i.e., easily a few hundred or more waiting in line to get their chance to cast their vote). And it was like this starting from before the polls opened until they closed.
Many would have loved to see lines "never longer than the lines at my local supermarket on Saturday morning" for that election at that polling place.
