For sure As it is now, they have a segment of society that learned what voting was all about during Reconstruction. They must have asked themselves, what is this Voting thing ? And they were informed that it's a process where you are told who to vote for. It got passed down to next generations. This totally explains how Af/Ams would switch from the Republican party to the Democratic party overnight ... not even questioning why they are voting for a party that was chock full of politicians against the Civil Rights Movement
And the tables have turned. It is now the Republican party with the explicit goal of eliminating Civil Rights for minorities.
It is the Republican Party with the explicit goal of making sure that the person registered to vote is the one that votes. (I fixed that for you) It is the Democrat Party that thinks so little of its base that they think they can’t figure out how to register to vote like those ‘rich white Republican old males’ do.
Republicans want registered voter's to vote? Nope. They've done things like have polling places too small for congested areas, long lines and waits (typically Democrats) put them in areas where you need a car to get to it (restricting typical more poor democrats), They've opposed polling places on or near college campuses (more democrat). And opposing early voting doesn't mean more voters will show up on election day. Something unexpected happens on the day, kid's sick, emergency, car breaks down. How does that encourage voiting? Maybe they're getting over this last one though.
Get your information somewhere besides PMSNBC. Why would Republicans close polling places? It is Democrats who run the big cities, so they are the ones setting all that up. As to "needing a car" well if you are in a rural area you are probably going to need a car. If you are in an urban area you can probably walk. I can walk to mine now, could for most of my life. But when I moved out west well the area was car-dependent. You needed a car to get to even the store. So you need one to get to the polling station. There should be no "early voting." Too many issues. Suppose a candidate dies. Then what? Not to mention how easier it makes for fraud and vote-harvesting. Get out to vote on election day, like we did for 200+ years. Meanwhile Democrats say minorities are not capable of getting an ID or figuring out how to register by the pre-election deadline. Easy to see which side is racist.
State governments establish representative electoral districts. State governments establish the number and locations of polling precincts. And in Red States, they have reduced the number of polling precincts, especially in minority areas.
So you claim.
And you say you worked in law? Someone's been slipping locoweed into your feedbag...
Law covers lots of things. I worked in real estate law, not as a lawyer.
Doesn't matter. You keep getting your facts incorrect.
You don't even cite facts. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |
