in the Past

The right to vote (and not to wait)
In the past decade, two presidential elections in the United States have witnessed very long wait times at precincts (voting stations) in states that ultimately decided the election (Florida in 2000 and Ohio in 2004) .

In Philadelphia as well, some voters complained about the long lines in some precincts, with most complaints coming from precinct A. In 2004, the average number of voters arriving at Precinct $A$ was of 35 per hour and the arrivals of voters was random with inter-arrival times that had a coefficient of variation of $1(\mathrm{CVa}=1)$ .
Philadelphia had deployed 1 voting machine in Precinct A. Suppose that each voter spent on average 100 seconds in the voting booth (this is the time needed to cast her/his vote using a voting machine) , with a standard deviation of 120 seconds.
