Dear Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger,

Hello my name is XXXXXX and l am a 7th grader at Radloff Middle School. Recently,
I learned about wait times for voting in Georgia. Georgia has a wait time of 21.7 minutes
or 2.5 times the national average. In our research,I also learned that the cause of long
lines are resource availability, location, and precinct size. Responses to the 2016 voting
survey suggest that over 560,000 eligible voters failed to cast a ballot because of
problems related to polling place management, including long lines.This is a problem
because many people have less than 30 minutes to vote. In our research,my class also
found that the voting process is predictable.

This was alarming to me because first you have to want until your 18 to vote and
then you have to wait for hours to vote in America. As a future voter in Georgia, I'm
concerned that some of your people are failing to cast a ballot. As the person in charge
of voting rights in Georgia, my question to you is why are wait times such a problem in
Georgia?

Thanks you for your time ,

XXXXX
