Undated -- Record voting has left many NC voters with long waits in a line with complete strangers.

Here are eight ways to pass the time and stay entertained:

1) Read a book - Pick up the dusty book on your bookshelf that you have been waiting to read for years.

2) Listen to some music - Take you mp3 player or even your walkman and jam out to some relaxing jazz.

3) Listen to the community gossip - Poll lines are the perfect place to find out who's dog walked through Mrs. Jones flower garden.

4) Pray - Take the time to speak with your spiritual leader.

5) Knit a scarf for the winter - Grab some yarn and knitting needle to create a winter fashion accessory.

6) Eat dinner - Especially if you are going after work, pick up a nose-friendly food to pass the time (stay away from the tuna for everyone else's sake!).

7) Try to find a date - Polls could be the perfect place to find someone that shares your same passions in life.

8) Network with others - Find out what the people in line around you do for a living and take extra business cards.
