It is dumb. They aren't going to save any money and likely will cost more with the extended hours and locations. It makes no sense other than to try to discourage some voters.
10 days of early voting is plenty as long as there is proper hours and enough voting locations to attend. And if you don't think you can do it on the 11 days of in poll voting, fill out an absentee ballot.

They are not contracting polling locations. The same distance you had in the last election, is the same as you will have this time. Any maybe an even shorter drive if they elect to do more stations, vs longer hours at each.

The only difference is you get 10 days vs 17 days of actual in person, early voting. That is a ton of time to get in and out and avoid Election Day lines.
