The All-Hands-On-deck Strategy To Fight Voter Suppression

  1. Someone tell Garland he’s going to be the last nail in the coffin of US democracy if he defends Trump and that suing Georgia doesn’t make up for it.

    1. @Billy Pardew
      Are you 12? The comment made a good point. If you disagree with it, say why. From what I heard Garland felt like his hands were tied on the specific case in question. Do you have an opinion on this, or is talk offensive to you somehow?

    2. @Billy Pardew
      Trump’s businesses are down by 40%.
      Forbes estimates Trump lost a third of his wealth.
      Trump’s hotels in Canada permanently closed.
      Deutsche Bank and PGA no longer financing the Trump Organization.
      Trump has thirty plus lawsuits pending.
      yada yada yada yada. 🤓

    3. I’VE BEEN ASKING FOR WEEKS NOW, WITHOUT A SINGLE RESPONSE…WHERE IN THE CONSTITUTION OR BILL OF RIGHTS ARE WE GIVEN THE RIGHT TO VOTE???? CAUSE I CAN’T FIND IT….ANYONE????

    4. @WARRIOR OF GOD Google is your friend and would have saved you a lot of time and ALL CAPS. “Fifteenth Amendment, Section 1. The right of citizens of the United States, who are eighteen years of age or older, to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of age.” Two Amendments later added the women’s and Black people’s rights to vote.

    1. @New Norm
      Why are you surprised when your trolling triggers people. Isn’t that your objective?

  2. And the sad thing about it is they don’t even see they did it to themselves when they loose 2022

    1. VOTE and help others to Vote regardless what the GOP think they can hinder and suppress.

    2. @Wilfried Hölscher It’s the laws the GOP made that they can overrule election boards, secretaries of state, et al, and prevent certification if the election didn’t go the way they wanted, that I’m not sure how to fight. I would hope a record turnout and overwhelming vote for a Democratic candidate would be sufficient but it sounds like that might not make a difference in the end.

  3. A changing demographic. Is that the reason why the democratic party is operating open borders? Importing voters from central America

    1. MRJTV Definition. Demographic change describes a population’s age structure adjusting to changes in living conditions. Consequently, changes in the composition of a society’s age structure are the result of social shifts

      Now you know what changing demographics means. NO, the democrats are NOT operating open borders, and those whom come across do NOT VOTE

    2. @Crimdor do you people like showing your stupidity? It is NOT hard to look it up I even did it for you, seeing how you are NOT smart enough to do it on your own.
      Definition. Demographic change describes a population’s age structure adjusting to changes in living conditions. Consequently, changes in the composition of a society’s age structure are the result of social shifts

    3. @Crimdor Do you even know the meaning of demographics? How is the demographic changing? Every poor person in Central America is moving to the US through illegal immigration made possible by the democratic party because they believe that the more people who are not whites move in, the more likely they will vote for the democratic party. But the democrats will regret it because being black doesn’t mean being automatically democrat. The republicans just need to educate and tell the immigrants what the democrats really are.

    4. @psycobleach46 tullis Even if they don’t vote, their children do vote. Anyone born in the US whether by illegal parents is a citizen of the US and eligible to vote. We have more than 30 million illegal immigrants in the country.

  4. *Georgia state House Speaker David Ralston (R):* High voter turnout will be extremely devastating for the Republican party.

    I would personally like to thank Mr. Ralston for saying the quiet part out loud so Garland could put that little gem in his lawsuit against Georgia to prove they are targeting vote by mail because they are afraid of the voters.

    1. I’VE BEEN ASKING FOR WEEKS NOW, WITHOUT A SINGLE RESPONSE…WHERE IN THE CONSTITUTION OR BILL OF RIGHTS ARE WE GIVEN THE RIGHT TO VOTE???? CAUSE I CAN’T FIND IT….ANYONE????

  5. *Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton:* If we sent out ballots to every registered voter we would have lost Texas.

    1. Sounds like a good plan to me. Send them out to every register voter before you expunge anyone from the voter rolls. By the way, why are you still not behind bars. Martha Stewart has class and dignity. You, Ken, not so much.

  6. Democrats are talking about a change in demographics.
    I don’t hear much about WHY there is such a sudden change in demographics.

    1. And WHY are you afraid of a change in demographics? I’m white, and I’m not going anywhere.

  7. It’s an uphill battle, for sure. This is your Vimy Ridge moment. Few battles are fought on ‘level ground’. The Great American Voting Rights War started in a pit and it’s been uphill ever since with a few foot holds such as the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

    1. @GreyGhost 702 It appears that you are not familiar with the Battle of Vimy Ridge. It cost many lives, yes, but it was a success and a pivotal moment in our history. A “moment of greatness”. Strength. P.S. I don’t aspire to be a bystander, or a coward that can’t speak (write) their truth. It’s not a trait that I admire in anyone.

  8. REPUBLICANS in TEXAS how they have kept the state red. They have CLOSED 750 VOTING SITES. REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR GREG ABBOTT CLOSED mail in ballot boxes across TEXAS leaving ONE BOX per county. HARRIS County had ONE BOX for 4.7 MILLION people. Then 3 REPUBLICANS tried to TOSS OUT 27,000 VOTES. In a GAME the REPUBLICANS SUED ABBOTT because he gave us TEXANS a few days early to VOTE due to the PANDEMIC, just to pretend he really wanted us to VOTE. They REMOVED the BLUE TICKET VOTING. It would save a lot of time for people who VOTE BLUEEEEE across the board. Their ADS were LIES, ETC

  9. VOTE VOTE VOTE. Help all your Family, Friends and Neighbors register and gain ID. Don’t let the GOP take your Rights!!!

    1. The Republican laws are already passed. Nobodies rights are being taken.
      You also are admitting that everyone is able to vote if they register and have an ID.

  10. Biden needs to create a nationalized i.d. program. Call it: Voter I.D for Free. It’s a win win, win win win win …

    1. See I would say that both sides would get on board with that.
      I highly doubt democrats are in the mood for actually doing ANYTHING that actually brings the country together though after everything they’ve done so far.

  11. AND WHAT ABOUT ALL THE SENATORS WHO *ARE* REPRESENTING THEIR CONSTITUENTS BY SUPPORTING THESE CHEATER PROOF VOTING LAWS???? WHICH IS THE MAJORITY OF AMERICANS…..LOL!!!

  12. John 8:44
    Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
