In an attempt to help alleviate long lines amid huge early voting turnout, Onondaga County already announced it will keep polls open for a total of four extra hours this coming weekend, opening sites at 8 a.m. instead of 10 a.m. “The overall number was a big surprise,” Onondaga County Democratic Elections Commissioner Dustin Czarny told WCNY. He added that people were lining up to vote even before polls opened, which happened throughout the state as well. “Obviously these are not lines we have ever been accustomed to in Central New York and we handled it really well,” Czarny said.
