Danny Bateman Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 How many times do we need to see this same song and dance play out before we just admit these guys prefer authoritarianism to democracy? FFS they're talking about passing a similar bill using a mechanism that can avert the governor's veto here in Michigan. We finally move somewhere cool that came in clutch to do the right thing in November and the GOP is already trying to ruin it for me. The Nebraska GOP did the same thing after '08 to ensure Obama wouldn't pull Omaha's 1 EV again. Luckily Omaha and Lincoln rebelled again last year. But hey, at least you guys get to look forward to Senator Ricketts and Governor Fischer next year. 1 Link to comment
Moiraine Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 It will be interesting to see how this plays over the next 5-10 years. Either the GOP takes the country down with them and presides over the ashes, or they bite the dust. 1 Link to comment

I do see you're trying to slither away without answering the question though. That's fine. We all know you're in support of reducing voter turnout by making it more difficult to vote. Which is fact. I know you think facts are dumb. 1 Link to comment

I haven’t read the bill yet (and I’m curious as to how many that commentate on the bill here have read it) because it doesn’t pertain to me, but the parts I’ve heard about are tightening up ballot drop boxes, ensuring no electioneering while “in line” to vote. Beyond that, tell me what’s in it, tell me why it will be hard to vote now, and I will commentate my thoughts. 1 Link to comment

Moiraine Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 People need to employ Occam's razor more often. Georgia goes Democrat for the first time in ages. Their state level Republican leaders make a bunch of changes to voting laws, including giving more power to themselves to pick members of the election board. What the f#&% do you think the purpose is? If you think it's because of voter fraud, I question your # of brain folds. Republicans need to stop being scared of the perpetual supposed impending socialist takeover of this country and look at what's happening right in front of their eyes. 2 1 2 Link to comment
commando Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 What we really need is a law that makes it illegal to give senators food and water while they're filibustering. 1 3 Link to comment
