Jason,
wait-timer = 40 sec = 4 x hello-timer (10 sec) = dead-interval on broadcast (ospf) network type.

Maybe i am misunderstanding

What I get from that output below is that the wait time is 40 seconds on
a broadcast network before it starts the election

The results are not in question, the timing is.

My current theory is that election is always from the list of routers
that a rouer has a two-way relationship with, thus the question has
nothing to do with that and needs to be pushed back to: "How long does a
router wait to collect two-way state neighbors before stop waiting and
starting and election?"

    That's my current theory. However, this really shouldn't be a
    theory, but scientific fact. I've looked at the RFC and still
    haven't found anything. Granted, it was a skim. I'd need to scan it
    to be sure of it's absence or presence.

    Upon closer examination of the process, it seems that DR/BDR election is
    based on the candidates that are adjacencies (neighbor routers with
    priority > 0). Thus, the question is pushed backed a step: when does a
    router say "I've 2-way with n-number of routers on this broadcast
    segment, let's begin election."? Even then, multiple routers are doing
    this, but given that that is per-segment, the election results should be
    the same all over. So, that part shouldn't be an issue.

    I've done this experiment myriad times and looked over the data for
    a long time. What is your personal analysis of this data? Any
    conclusion? I've not been any to come up with with anything based
    on this data. If we are going to do our work off empirical data, we
    need to have a series of tests with a specified baseline. However,
    I'm more looking for an axiom from the [seemingly non-existent]
    documentation. Normally I'd look at the RFC, but do not any any
    reason to think that Cisco is following it at this point.

    Well that depends

    How long does the device take to boot up compared to other devices

    When is the device ready to participate in the OSPF election
    process (running more services on a device may take it longer to
    start participating compared to a router with less services)

    DR and BDR election is done via the Hello protocol –

    OSPF Network Type | Hello | DR/BDR |
    _________________________________________
    Broadcast | 10sec | Elects DR/BDR|
    _________________________________________
    NonBroadcast | 30sec | Elects DR/BDR|
    _________________________________________
    P2MP | 30sec | No DR/BDR |
    _________________________________________
    P2MP NonBroadcast | 30sec | No DR/BDR |
    _________________________________________
    P2P | 10sec | No DR/BDR |

    If you want to control which devices become the DR/BDR you can
    use “*ip ospf priority” and set all devices that you do not want
    to be DR/BDR to “0” ***

    Not sure exactly how may hellos before the DR/BDR election takes
    place, perhaps I will lab it up to see -

    I've not been able to figure this out nor can I find any
    documentation for this: how long does OSPF wait for others to
    cast their vote before doing the DR/BDR election?

    If R1, R2, and R3 come online with 10.1.1.X/25 (X=RX) ip
    addresses, and R1 and R2 see each other's messages, they will
    start an election. If R3 is there, it wins... if it's too late,
    R2 wins.

    When is "too late"?
