BOZEMAN, Mont. (AP) — Waiting to vote tested the willpower of hundreds of people in an hourslong line that stretched outside a county courthouse in a Montana town. Polls closed at 8 p.m. in Bozeman, Montana, but the last ballot wasn’t cast until 4 a.m. Those stuck in line included Davor Danevski, who said he missed the last two elections living abroad and didn’t want to miss this one.

Voters were served snacks and pizza and listened to DJ music as they stood outside in the Montana cold.
