the same people will camp out over night in front of Walmart to get a good deal on tv...what is more important? :hee:

You must have been really good at dodge ball in school, because you keep dodging the questions and points being raised, there is something very wrong when I can vote in ten minutes and others need to wait in line for 5-10 hours. Please spin that into its easy for anyone to vote.

So we have had voter suppression for over 200 years in this country? And, BTW, Republican voters would also be standing in lines.

Counties are responsible for the number and placement of polling places in Georgia. If there are not enough places or machines, it is up to the County. "Fulton County [which includes the Atlanta metro area] is one of the most reliably Democratic counties in the entire nation." It's up to the Fulton Co. Democrats to provide enough polling places and machines. The County administration said the waiting times were a result of a glitch in the voting pads.

So nearly 70% of that county voted democratic last presidential election, why would they want to put more polling places in so more people can vote, you have to consider the voting history and local government, everything plays into why certain places are making it harder to vote.

I'm assuming that the heavy Democrat voting pedigree would put Democrats in charge of the county. The county is in charge of how many polling places and where their located and how many machines they have. I don't know why Democrats would want to make voting harder by not having enough polling places or machines. They did say the problem was a glitch in the voting pads. Maybe it was incompetence. Or just a temporary glitch.

:kewl: those democrat districts always seem to have lots of problems with their machines:uhuh:

absentee ballots are "requested"..you have to fill out a request for one, there is a process

in most cases you used to have to provide a reason why you needed an absentee ballot

some states have eliminated the requirement for a reason to get an absentee ballot

some states are mailing out absentee ballot applications regardless of whether they are requested or not

some states are mailing out ballots whether they are requested or not

not everyone wants to vote, if they do there are easy ways to accomplish that...voting is a personal thing...democrats seem determined to badger the population, particularly their presumed voters who are apparently incompetent without the assistance of democrats to vote whether they want to or not(they refer to this as making it easier)


so the difference between the two is the absentee ballot is requested by the voter and the voter goes through the process of applying for and then receiving and then submitting his/her ballot

what democrats seem anxious to have happen is for ballots to be mass mailed to everyone and then collect and count what comes back in the mail or drop box which is very different than requesting an absentee ballot

North and south are two different party strongholds be interested to learn which has these reported long lines due to shortages of polling places.

I'm sure the republicans were keeping everyone from voting everywhere:hihi:

I joked that next, the democrats will want to pay people to vote(the ones that they don't already pay to do so:))...but apparently they've introduced legislation...


Senator Ron Wyden (D., Ore.) tweeted, pivoting to promote his own piece of legislation — which would pay voters $100 to wait in line for at least 90 minutes.

The "People Over Long Lines" Act :rotf2:

I'd like this applied to convenience stores...it is ridiculous that I have to stand in line and wait to hand the clerk $1.10 for the coffee that I got myself while some moron can't decide which scratch ticket he/she wants....and the GOVERNMENT is the source of the scratch tickets...which means the government is keeping me for getting my Constitutionally guaranteed coffee(pursuit of happiness)...

Neither make it acceptable :btu:

So if Trump wins can I say he not legitimate POTUS because of all the Fraud he and his supporters insist is going to happen ?

Or will this Fraud only materialize or be considered if Trump losses?

you can say whatever you want...it's America

just don't spray paint stuff, smash windows, burn buildings, block roadways, assault others and generally annoy other Americans who don't want to be annoyed by you because that would be wrong....

Let me make this connection for you.

The 200+ Federal Judges Donald Trump appointed with Mitch McConnell ARE THE JUDGES voting to suppress votes nationwide, including Texas. All three of those judges were Trump appointees.

I doubt that what they decided on was actually labeled or used the phrase "voter suppression." What was important is whether or not whatever was being litigated was constitutional or legal.

Saw an interview with the Texas lt Governor over the Drop box issue . This was the question to him

You dont see the issue of 1 drop box for a county the size of RI having 1 drop box yet another county with 200 people also get 1 drop box

He said no I see no issue
Then went on to complain about voter fraud with out evidence.

you can really feel the enthusiasm for the democrat ticket!!!


Kamala Harris was in Asheville, NC on Wednesday for a campaign rally ina hotly contested state, but almost nobody showed up. The cameras, upon zooming out and panning around at the get-out the vote event, showed just six people present.

Joe and Kamala have more secret service members at their campaign events than supporters :rotf2:

love how she says "hi, asheville"...when 99.994% of asheville(pop around 100,000) isn't there

Maybe the locals got the Proud Boys email saying vote for Trump or else. I guess they aren’t standing by any longer.

that would be the least likely reason....the most likely reason is that nobody likes her and she's running as part of the worst ticket in American presidential election history ....but don't worry biden/harris is leading by like 27 points nationally:huh:


weren't those supposed proud boyz emails actually from iran?...probably using money obama gave them

So...Ratcliffe’s claim is that, because Americans identify Trump with the Proud Boys, Iranian-spoofed Proud Boys emails threatening Dems were intended to hurt TRUMP in the election?

That’s supposed to be a good argument for Trump—that Americans identify him with neo-fascists??

are you drinking this early?

How do you judge the worst administration, seems to me there is a pattern and your side might be winning in the most corrupt race.

Your list is highly overexaggerated and basically useless as a measurement for judging how good or bad an administration is. Only about half a dozen indictments, according to Politico, were directly tied to the administration. And most of those, like the Flynn and papadopoulos indictments, don't indicate any Trump criminality.

On the other hand, the Trump administration has done several important and productive things that benefit the country. And he has been accused, without proof, of mishandling the pandemic. But others have given him credit for doing a very good job.

Your opinion of productive isn't necessarily mine, so that point means nothing to me and there is plenty of proof Trump mishandled the pandemic; there will soon be 300,000 reasons why. Trump surrounded himself with people of like mind and character, all the indictments are just a perfect example of you are who you surround yourself with. Don't you have some hard water you can drop a crappie jig through a hole to by now.

I agree with one thing you said here. It's your opinion. Another just say stuff.

A jury — one that was sequestered and kept anonymous — heard secret recordings investigators had made. In them, Teflon Don threatened violence and retaliation and made it clear that those who flouted him would pay a heavy price. He pledged to fight the investigators “tooth and nail to the end,” and his spokesman claimed he was the victim of a class war. “He didn’t go to Harvard. He didn’t go to Yale. This is the way these men talk,” the attorney said. “They are snippets of much larger conversations that were deliberately taken out of context … Those isolated phrases don’t mean what the prosecutors say they mean. They are not evidence of criminality.”

Sound familiar, that guy shared a lawyer with the current occupier of the White House.

I think it's fair to put an * next to obama and trump at this point

Iowa voters won't be able to cast their ballot at any of those polling places this Election Day because of hundreds of closures and consolidations that have rippled across the state due to the coronavirus pandemic.

more examples of voter suppression will republican Care seeing iowa went with Trump in 2016

close to 70 million American voters have somehow figured out how to vote already...if you are struggling to figure out how to vote maybe you shouldn't be voting

Because?
Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device

heard it's up to 80 million Americans who have already leapt over the high hurdle and navigated the daunting process of casting a vote...

Its no about figuring out how to vote its where


Oh ok so the man or women who have voted at the same polling place for decades who may not be following the closures or informed about the closing shows up on Tuesday to vote and is told to drive x many miles to a new polling place they consolidated with 4 others and wait x amount of hours and its their fault

You love blaming those impacted. Even if Most Trump supporters prefer to vote in person

Let me guess its the price of freedom. And a privilege To wait in line hours to vote

name one....

there was a story on our local news recently...Newport had closed a polling place due to heath concerns or something...the local news sent a team to investigate this travesty...they decided to see how long it would take them to get to the next closest polling place where they had consolidated...it took 45 seconds...it was 2 blocks away...there has never been more information available from more sources about how, where and when to vote....

Thank God Newport is in a blue state and not Texas w/only 1 drop box for millions of people.

they are still complaining about the inconvenience

If you complain about two blocks, I’d consider where this story came from, Newport isn’t exactly a poor rural community. If you have to stand in line for 5-8 hours, not only is something serious wrong (Scott voting never was so easy right), you definitely have something to complain about; which is why they are willing to do it.

you don't have to...there are options... as has been proven by about 80 million voters now?

great opportunity to meet new people though :uhuh:

you know that blue states and where democrats control the voting process is where most of the complaints come from....right?

You don't know their individual situations (which demonstrates the Repub. lack of empathy). Someone shouldn't have to drive far and wait in long lines to vote. If they don't want to send in ballots through a postal system that has been politicized by the Trump admin, they shouldn't have to.

Pathetic that the Repub. party wants to limit the vote (close polling places, limit the time votes can be counted, etc, etc).
