OK, walking from the boundary of the property to the polling booth.
You realise there is also a bias against people who vote at
mid-afternoon, when bird numbers are lower and the queues are shorter.

Places with more birds tend to have shorter queues, and people who think getting up early will get them more birds will have less time to see them.If we bend the rules we'll have people parking further away just to get more birds. Or, even worse, *walking* from home (probably Green voters).Next time I'll try to find a school that has windows in its gym. I just wish I'd thought of this before I was actually in the queue.
