translated from Spanish: STEP: Long lines to vote in the first hours of the elections

With protocols to prevent coronavirus infections, avoid crowding people inside buildings and take care of the health of voters, in many schools there were delays of up to an hour and long lines on the street until they began to move people into the dark room. The reasons range from the slowness in ordering the protocols and agreeing between the table authorities to the classic last-minute absences of presidents or prosecutors. This situation was not only reported in the city of Buenos Aires, but there were also registrations in the Province, in Rosario, in Córdoba and Mendoza, within the framework of the PASO 2021, the first elections at the national level marked by the Covid-19 pandemic.Users on social networks published photos with long lines as a result of the delays that occurred in some schools, since the process of appointment of the new heads of the tables delayed the entry of those who came to cast their vote.

Rosario’s people have to queue long at all schools to vote. Terrible organization of the
election by the Post Office managed by La Campora and the national and provincial Electoral Justice. I’m starting to seriously think that the goal is to stop people from voting. pic.twitter.com/nkq8TjJy2O — Charly Cardozo (@_charlycardozo)

Do not be discouraged by the lines you see on the street. The voting time is more or less the same as always. Before, inside schools and now, outside. Patience and tranquility. — Gabriela Pepe (@gabyspepe)
