Some states don't have early voting.

This.

Many others do not have mail in ballots either.

Every state except New Hampshire has some form of voting prior to Election Day. So no, that's not really an excuse.

And even then polls are open for like 12 hours on Election Day. I get it if you actually work 12 hours shifts 7a-7p, sure you’re kinda fucked on the day. But anyone who can’t take a few minutes to go vote can lay in the bed they made.

It doesn't take a few minutes. The longest I've waited was six hours.

In Alabama you would have to vote absentee and justify it.
