The closing of the polling places was a bit overblown. The state always has in person, absentee voting prior to the election. You only need to say, and sign a legal document that you'll be out of the county on election day. Voting takes place at the main city building every day, for like a month prior. In this case, they pretty much waved all requirements for it, due to Covid, and you could vote anytime prior, via mail, or in person. I voted in like 10 minutes the day prior. It was nothing. A little bit of advance planning by people could have saved them time waiting, or they could have mailed their ballots in weeks prior. That's the real reason. McGrath was soaking up early votes before Booker even picked up his steam. That's why the spread was that big.
