It's probably a blue area in a red state. They intentionally open fewer polling places there as a voter suppression tactic, hoping people will see the line and figure their vote doesn't have enough weight to justify the time.

exactly this. I've moved around a bit and the only places I've had to wait any significant amount of time have been near cities in red states.

really wish we just had universal vote by mail
