These lefty mainstream 'news' sources used to have integrity, but it's all about politics today. Going back to pre-Civil Rights days just to obviously piss people off is by design. Biden calling compairing modern the "new Jim Crow" was reckless and a major lie. ABC said nothing about how we've been using the very same voting laws that Bill Clinton signed in 1993! They aren't 'new'. Besides states everywhere adding even MORE polling places and time. Plus mail-in ballots, which is friggin stupid. It's never been easier to vote than today!

That’s only if you make the identification free and EASILY accessible to people who would be poor and might not otherwise receive it. Like some states will allow you to have a concealed handgun license to go vote because that’s more likely to be held by conservatives, but a state college ID is not allowed. Or you have to make several trips a far distance to get a free voter identification card. Maybe you believe what you’re saying, but you’re being lied to. Most of these voting rules are mainly wedge issues and/or ways to throw up obstacles to voting.

For examples look at the actions of Texas republicans including their governor as well as the states of Florida, Georgia and North Carolina. Unfortunately the battle for election in those states is more than just showing up and voting, they have tricks and games to erase your vote and prevent it from happening or being counted. My favorite, super long lines that make casting a vote an all day process in hopes people get discouraged and simply don't vote or having one ballot box for a county that can be over 100 miles away designed to stop people from voting and keep things the same. Well change has got to happen when they cheat like this, flush the turds!

Their answer to those problems: "Remove the ID requirement and allow 16yr olds to get in line too." We aren't going to fix "voter suppression" until the Democrats stfu about nonissue lies and the Republicans get replaced by someone who actually does what Republican voters want instead of lay back and accept the narrative of their opponents. Fk Republicans but extra fk Democrats.

The most people of all color voted in those states. Not sure why Dems keep putting Black and Brown Americans down when it's been proven over and over that they are more than capable of getting ID and voting. Not like they haven't been doing it for 50 years prior. Over 98% of Black and Brown American adults have ID right now, and have been voting for decades. Not sure why Dems keep putting these people down for over 100 years and call the other side the R word when it's obvious it's the left suppressing them, or they'd be both less poor and not a minority.

The March 1st Texas Primary Shows Massive Suppression Of Voting By Mail. One of the most important rights of American citizens is the “franchise”. It our right to vote. That right has come under fire in Texas by the republican controlled Texas legislature that purposefully made voting more difficult, especially voting by mail. It is difficult to admit, but for the first time since I reached voting age, I did not vote in a primary. I had eye surgery scheduled for that day and it could not be changed. When I tried to order my vote by mail ballot, I became submerged in a confusing and contradictory maze of instructions that I knew were designed to suppress voting by mail. Since Texas has separate primary ballots for democrats and republicans, I chose to entrust the outcome of the democratic primary to my democratic brethren. I made this decision after reading the instructions. It became crystal clear that the new vote by mail guidelines were guaranteed to create massive compliance failures in urban counties and on March 1st, my fears were realized. In Texas, over 23,000 mail in ballots were rejected. In my home county of Harris, almost 7,000 ballots of that total were rejected for technicalities. This is almost 20% of all rejected mail in votes. During the primary election in 2018, the county only rejected 135 mail in ballots out of more than 48,000. This is less than 0.3%. The culprit is Senate Bill 1 which, in addition to other vote suppression schemes, was designed to suppress voting by mail in larger and more liberal counties. This is how a democratic republic is destroyed from within. We now have proof that voter suppression by The Texas Legislature is real, and it’s a harbinger of things to come as more republican controlled state primaries take their toll on the most basic citizen franchise.
