You know those black women who stand in line with you when you vote? The GOP wants to throw away their vote.

vernonFL: You know those black women anyone who isn't a christian land owning white male who stand in line with you when you vote? The GOP wants to throw away their vote.


/ftfy

it will never work. old people never throw anything away.

As indicated in the story, the GOP-controlled legislature passed a bill last year imposing a series of restrictions on voting. After opponents started an initiative campaign for a ballot issue -- and demonstrated they would get tens of thousands more signatures than needed to get on the ballot -- the legislature passed a bill rescinding most of the provisions of the previous bill.

But most =/= all, so the ballot issue proponents have filed suit to force a referendum. Problem is, the Ohio Supreme Court is 6/7 Republican.

Republicans must be so proud to be part of the party that does whatever it can to dissuade Americans from voting.

So goddamn patriotic it makes my heart ache.

The number of people who will unable to vote because of the various measures of those few patriotic Republicans will be insignificant compared to the illegal voters who will not get their opportunity to subvert democracy.

They need to keep up by the good work and no be dissuaded by arguments that democracy is better served by encouraging participation, not discouraging. Besides who are people like me to point that out, they invented democracy, after all. They also fully understand the idea that you cannot have freedom if it doesn't benefit you personally.

Someone needs to build a time machine quick so we can see Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, Abe Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt beating the ever-loving shiat out of the leaders of the modern GOP.

Step 1) Introduce Teddy Roosevelt to the M249 light machine gun
Step 2) Give him a run-down of what the modern GOP has been doing for the past 30 years
Step 3) Let him go to town

So goddamn patriotic it makes my heart ache.

Republicans: If you don't vote for them, then you shouldn't get the vote. USA, USA, USA!

I'd make a Nazi comparison, but the Nazis (until taking power in 1933) accepted the election results of the German people.

/For once, Godwin's Law doesn't apply because the Nazis were less extreme than the contemporary GOP
//Vote Republican anyway

B-b-b-b-but republicans dress up in those costumes.

but new black panther ACORNs helping illegals fraudulently vote are the real problem

I haven't the foggiest idea how to change the size of a picture.

In legislation proposed last year (and withdrawn after it was poised to be rejected by a voter referendum), another provision would bar poll workers from helping voters find the correct precinct if they showed up at the wrong place. That's right. A proposed GOP reform would ensure that poll workers have no obligation to tell you anything at all if you ask them a question pertaining to precisely the thing they are meant to do-facilitate voting. The language Ohio Republicans tried to insert into the omnibus voting law would provide that "it is the duty of the individual casting the ballot to ensure that the individual is casting that ballot in the correct precinct."

Unfarkingbelievable. The sole reason for this is for GOP workers at the polls to be able to guide white men to the right place while simultaneously informing minorities and women that it is their obligation to find the correct precinct. There is absolutely no other reason to have worded it this way.

I was actually going to say something about how you'd be amused at this, but it's against the rules to mention a Farker before they post in the thread.

Thank you. The fire house/poling station is FREEZING in the winter, especially when they open the doors to take the trucks out, so I was wrapped in layers.

that's....really mean.

It's super funny because the only time I ever heard a legitimate case of voter fraud influencing an important election was when Bush was elected in 2000.

Which was accomplished by throwing away ballots and using a judge to appoint the person who didn't win the actual majority vote.
