In some places elections dragged on till 6.30 p.m The delay was due to the

This makes sense. It could be argued that, the poorer you are, the
stronger the reason to vote (the need for a godfather in office, to
receive some favour, etc). The middle classes and the affluent have
other ways of controlling the system. Not always... but often! FN
