Mine was running as quickly as it possibly could (nobody stopping to have a chat), but that wasn't very quick. They had 2 issuing officers for the local ward and 1 absentee ballot issuing officer. It took me about 45 minutes for me, and by the time I left the line was even longer than when I arrived. Just severely understaffed.

Which frustrates me so much. Because I put my expression of interest in to work the election myself, but I never got an offer, even with past experience doing 2 federal elections, 1 state election, and a referendum before.

Sounds like they expected everyone to early or postal vote!
