I didn't cherry pick, I picked a county I'm familiar with because I live there. Maybe some other people can chime in with their local areas. But since Georgia was one of the two areas mentioned in the article, let's look at Fulton county, which is where Atlanta, GA is located. It looks like there's about 30 early polling locations [0] vs 380 or so polling locations on election day [1]. So still 12-13x differential.

EDIT: I forgot the address the first sentence. I believe I made it quite clear that I see missed opportunity here.
