6. One per county?

Here's my county:



Most of the population (1.4 million) is on the west end, but there's also Fishers Island (pop 600 or so) that's not on this map and is closer to Connecticut. It takes two ferries to get from there to Greenport on the East End, then another 50-60 miles to the county offfices. The distance from Huntington to Montauk is abut 85 miles, so figure up to around a 40 mile drive to wherever they would put our one polling place.

I doubt Kentucky has many counties with such severe geographic problems, but the thought that one per county won't suppress voting is insane.
